Since the server update to version 1 I've had real problems with Plex and Xbox. I have a solid network setup - gigabit Ethernet wired and wireless. All my files are 720p MKV with h.264, DD or DTS and SRT.
Pre server version 1 my QNAP NAS could handle the transcoding of DTS and subtitles that is needed for our viewing pleasure on our Xbox One (wired). Now on version 1 it maxes out the processor and stutters the video like a bitch. What does my head in is that the same film will run perfectly on my iPad Air with Plex iOS app.
What is even more crazy is that with VLC I can watch the same film at the same time on three different devices perfectly and yet with only Plex on Xbox it will not work without stuttering every 5 seconds. (I know this is due to VLC not having to transcode DTS).
This is more of a rant than a request for help ( I'm a real geek and understand what's happening). Hopefully Plex tech support might read this...
Should I get an Apple TV4 since it handles text based subtitles (SRT) without the need to transcode? I real want the Xbox one to be the only media device.
Thanks for reading.
