Rule 3 - Keep post and comments relevant

Posts must be related to Plex and Plex-related products, apps. etc. Try to keep comments relevant to the parent comment and to the post.


Rule 4 - Keep discussions of "media aqcuistion" limited to means and methods only.

Discussions regarding media acquisition should be limited to the "how" not the "what", as this is not the place to discuss piracy of specific media. There are other communities for that, and we don't want to get this community defederated from instances where it's a forbidden topic. Posts/comments discussing specific acts of piracy ("How do I find X show?" or "Where can I download Y film?")will be removed. For further clarification see this post

Any idea why this would happen. I think it’s mostly (if not always on my roku that I’ve noticed it.

Off by ~2 seconds if I directly play but is fine if I downgrade the quality.

it’s a bad encoding issue or a corrupt file. re-download the episode.

edit: if you check the add-ons guide in the sidebar, there’s an app called Checkrr which will occasionally scan your library for corrupt files and use Sonarr/Radarr to re-download them.

Redownload is easy

I’ll check out Chekrr. Never heard of that arr.

check out the c/Plex add-ons Guide! it’s the community’s curated list of add-ons most useful for the typical plex setup. There’s also the Awesome-arr guide (also in the sidebar) which is a comprehensive list maintained independently, which has jus about everything you could think of.

I’m trying to build a new Plex community here , and that starts with helping each other!

[–] Tandybaum@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

So far so good! The historical listen of weird issues are a huge part of it so hopefully we’ll behind it bit by bit.

I've had this too but it went away after converting my entire library to mp4 with the proper codec settings for Plex / big screen TV.
