Xbox One X - 4K Videos always start transcoding (since Update?)

Greetings,

I have a Problem with my Plex App on my Xbox One X .

My 4K Movies won’t start without transcoding on my Xbox One X.

But this has worked 3 days ago without a Problem!!. So I think it was an Plex Update or I have made a Mistake on my Xbox Settings?

On the Plex App I have selected direct play and passthrough.

Maybe I have made an mistake with HDR or Sound Settings?

Tested with two mkv Files and same results.

I have also tested 1080p mkv Files and Pllex is also transcoding this 1080p Files? Why? This was never necessary?

I have tested this with an Xbox One X and a PS4 Pro. Same behaviour! So I think this is a Bug in Plex Media Server!

Ive noticed this as well the plex app on xbox one x is useless to me, i cant even steam a 1080p without some kind of stutter and freeze. The roku plex app works perfect for all my media 4k and 1080p. You haven’t made a mistake, the app needs serious help, i hope they fix it soon.
