If I select the 18mbps version, it doesn't play it at all. It defaults to playing the 34mbps version, and plays it fine. Amadeus which I have as the straight rip (18mbps) and transcoded (34mbps). The Plex app on firestick seems to have a quirk/limitation where it doesn't let you select playback options for a different version of the file. Ultimately I'll go with whatever is less likely to get wibbly with audio playback. Firestick is more easily available, and can be used with an ethernet adapter. Roku has more apps, though nothing that's a deal breaker, but I'd need to go to a different city to collect one. And return the other / both if they're no good. Suppose I could buy both, return one unopened if the first I try works fine. Roku Streaming + is £30 today (only?), as is Firestick 4k. So the question now is, Roku or Fire Stick. Shield is well out, far too expensive, though the interwebz seems to agree it's great for this purpose. Guess Roku wanted to sell more Roku devices. Was going to sideload plex onto a spare NowTV box to test that which I've done before, but the ability to do so has been patched out. I don't have a clue about AV things, so any help gratefully taken on thisĬouldn't try plex on the mobile without making a purchase, though did use the Plex media player app on a laptop and playback was perfect, even over wifi which is good to know. So a sound bar would make sense anyway to deal with that issue. In which case getting some speakers / soundbar with their own, improved decoder should help?īesides which the TV's speakers often make a buzzing noise during deep sounds (and no I don't have the bass turned up!). My theory is that the TV's audio decoder is struggling with whatever format the audio is in on the certain bluray rips this is prone to happen in.
#PLEX MEDIA PLAYER SYNC AUDIO TV#
If I transcode the bluray video and audio in Handbrake, the TV will play that transcoded file perfectly in sync. Played in VLC, or played on the Plex web player on my PC, the audio is in sync.Īdjusting the Audio Delay setting (including to 0) in the TV's settings doesn't fix it (I have it set to 100ms by default which is fine for all other media). When playing the MKV file by plex, the audio is not being transcoded by the server. Playing from the Bluray disc itself on a Panasonic DMR-BWT720 connected to the TV, the audio is fine and in sync.
#PLEX MEDIA PLAYER SYNC AUDIO PC#
This happens both when playing the file via plex (the WD mycloud server or the PC server), or off an external HDD connected to the TV by USB Here's the issue I have and want to overcome: The TV will sometimes have audio out of sync when playing a bluray I've ripped to MKV.
I also have Plex set up on this PC, and can use the PC as a server, reading the files from the mycloud's network shares, or from USB hard drives where I have the MKV files copied to. The server is quite weak (a WD mycloud ex2 ultra). I've ripped our DVD/Bluray collection to MKV to play off a plex server.
