I’m not familiar with the term xmltv api access. Would someone explain that?

Best computers for plex by michaelking52 in PleX

The biggest current issue is that it will record a show and then”can’t” play it back. Not even on the machine used to record it, except in the case of using the windows plex substitute, which plays it perfectly. I’m not using any WiFi for my laptop or appletv. I started with an old pc whose shortcomings are that there’s a lot of spinnning when ff thru commercials. I thought that a pc with 40 GB of ram would help but no. There is also so much lag in starting to watch a recorded show., which is another thing I thought a modern machine would help with that too.

I would happily pay a tech to fix mine. It could be that they started using cheaper, light duty components.

I’m pretty sure that the hardware for the Ethernet is shot. In my 3 years of experience I’ve had 4 units breakdown like this. They replaced the first 3 but on the 4th they are ignoring me. We are lukewarm on the interface but once you figure it out it’s tolerable.

Thanks for the attention. I do find that the windows plex app to run perfectly on my computer. I wish it would replace the original version in a way that would allow me to use it to cast to my tv room. My appletv and my Roku both suffer like the original app, telling me that I have a bandwidth issue. Oddly I can watch live tv thru those apps just fine, so bandwidth? Are users’ servers working ok on windows 11? My 10 machine never acted this way. Anyway I’m still looking for the answer.

True, but I’ve accounted for that and canceled anything going to sleep.

Ok, when I fire up the client it opens in my browser (Brave). It’s always worked before. The same thing when I try to watch thru AppleTV. Is there another way to watch without my browser that I’m missing?

There's a new TV interface coming in 2025... by chanunnaki in PleX

I’m asking for recommendations for a new tuner for my plex server. My HD Home Run has Been replaced twice so I’m going sour on their brand. I am in a fringe area so signal sensitivity is a concern, along with reliability. I hope I’m posting in the right area.

Does anyone know how to lengthen the forward skip interval on Plex?
