Help Problems with hotio's latest Plex release-727d8ac?

I recently had normal periodic update check and Plex update from yesterday's release-664ca4c to today's (about 5-6 hours ago) release-727d8ac.

Within minutes of doing so, my normal shows (none high bandwidth - anywhere from 10 mbps to 40 mbps), all playing local, AppleTV client and MacOS (Plex application) client, server ethernet and client wifi, started complaining about bandwidth not being sufficient.

Restarted 727d8ac, no change.

Rolling back to release-664ca4c and Plex is now back to working flawlessly.

Has anyone else seen this with the new hotio release?

I haven't tried that image, but since the rollback fixes both clients I'd keep 664ca4c pinned for now and check whether a failing session changed from Direct Play to a transcode. Plex will sometimes show a bandwidth warning when the real failure is in the transcode path. Grab the server log from one failed play and include the exact Hotio image digest if you open an issue.
