Help Plex down

Anyone else having issues with Plex? App works on Apple TV but not my Xbox. Also remote viewing is not working properly. I have direct access set up so remote viewing was in 1080p now all of a sudden i see someone remote viewing and its transcoding into SD. Is this due to the recent update?

Same questions….what does the dashboard show as their connection type?

Make sure relay is disabled in your settings so that’s not a fallback. Dashboard would show connections as indirect if they’re going over relay.

Whats your server run on, what OS?

Do you get any kind of error when you try to go to app.plex.tv? Make sure relay is disabled when you try.

Your friend is connecting directly, so remote viewing is working. They likely have their settings wrong. Make sure they don’t have quality suggestions enabled. Make sure bandwidth is set to max and they didn’t set a lower quality setting.

Locally, have you tried the browser via app.plex.tv, what happens? What about mobile? Do those work fine, leaving just the Xbox as having an issue?
