It's just taken me 55 minutes to watch a 35 minute episode on Plex because of crashes (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I put on an episode of a show I'm watching, and about ten minutes into it, I missed something on screen, so pressed the skip back button on my remote. The spinning loading circle came up, but stayed for a while, and the episode froze at the point where I'd pressed the button.

No problem I thought, I haven't used Plex for a while, it might just need a little kick. I restarted my fire stick, and restarted the Plex server, just in case. A few minutes later, I didn't catch what a character said, so I tried skipping back again. Plex crashed again. Another set of restarts and we're watching again.

About 15 minutes later, the episode just freezes. No error message or warning, just a frozen screen. I gave it a minute and pressed play, and Plex crashed back to the episode selection screen. Pressing play worked again for a few minutes, until I got an error on screen telling me that my network is too slow for the video. It's a less than 1080p video streaming at 10 Mbps over a gigabit connection. This time, reopening the video took me back to the point of the last issue.

So much for relaxing in front of the TV...

Lol. I feel you. Every single time me and my wife watch something on plex and we tried going backward, plex will most definitely crash. I noticed if i mash the backward button it will definitely crash. If i give it time between pressess its usually works okay.

I always chalk it up to my android tv being having shit processor and low ram. Me and my wife even has a ritual now. Everytime the damn circle spinning takes awhile, we always chant crash crash crash.

Used to own apple tv and it was heaven.The ui is so buttery smooth.

If I was having problems with anything else, I would blame the fire stick. It's cheaply made Amazon crap that's designed to fail. I regularly stream to it from other sources though, and don't get any issues. In this case, I skipped back once, so ten seconds, and that was too much for Plex to handle 🤷🏻‍♂️

I've experienced the same thing on a beefy Synology NAS when watching in my own home network. Methinks Plex needs some work.

Damn. Now i think plex is behind all of this. I always thought it was my tv since everytime i go back to home screen or do anything a little bit faster it always lags like a little bitch. Maybe its both plex and tv.

But then again, I never notice any crash with stremio. Just usual lags.

Yours is even worse. Mine crash when skipped back 20, 30 seconds.
