    Advice Plex on nowtv box driving me mad.

    For the last week or two my now tv box has started to be a bitch when I load plex.
    it sits on the menu with no covers or names just the usual on deck unwatched etc.

    if I walk away and come back it will show 5/6 movie covers but when I scroll along it takes a dogs age to catch up again.
    then when I finally find a film and click ok it start to load and then fails.

    its not my plex as my other devices work fine with plex.
    ipad, wd tv live, laptop, pc all work fine.

    restarted the now tv box even reconnected the wifi thinking that could have been the issue but no
    anyone else have this issue?

    Mine did something similar. Factory reset the box and reinstalled plex. I actually moved back to the official Plex app rather than rarplex and found it a bit snappier.

    One of mine was doing this the other day
    The.n When it would work it just froze. Factory reset and fresh install later all good now.

    Something to do with updates required

    Also had loads of probs with PLEX and found only cure was to periodically wipe/reinstall.

    Ran this http://emby.media/ alongside PLEX for a few months. Now ditched PLEX completely. Does everything PLEX did for me , streaming over the net e.t.c
    Prefered PLEX's UI but was fed up of glitches (also noticably better streaming quality on EMBY)

    Sounds like I work for em lol
