I just grabbed the 2.8.0 from plex.tv and started that one and still can't repro such issue. My iMac is not quite up to date (10.12.6), but still. Wether i start PMP from finder or spotlight doesn't seem to have any incidence. Will update just in case some recent update broke it. ![]() So after getting an answer to how to full “tv-fullscreen” Plex media player, I go to watch video, and it looks lie crap. Checked settings, says its playing in original format. So went on to my PC loaded PHT and it looks so much better, like it did on PHT on my Mac. Is there something I missed? Restore from icloud backup. Or is PMP just a crappier program? It used to look like wa watching 720p video, cuz i was, now it looks like 480p which it shouldn’t. From server to player everything is set to play original quality. Is there something i’m missing? I don’t get it so far really disappointed that I can no longer use PHT, feels like a massive step backwards. May just use a net drive and vlc if this is what it’s going to be like. IT would also be awesome if they could use a layout that was more functional like PHT, rather then tons of varying sizes of images and less content. Less ability to easily show what you want, less of everything really. Very disappointed in plex with these changes. Yes PMP and PMS are on the same network. Where, how, do I find and change “direct play” to enable it? Because from what i can see it is enabled on both ends, it is checked off in the settings. How to install a new hard drive. Or is this an effect of PMP and PMS not being able to understand they are on the same network? As well why would the plex systems think it is on a remote system or different networks? And is there a way to convince it they are on the same network, technically they are probably within 10 ft physically. They are also both hardwired into the same router. So is this some router config I need to change? Any reason why this was never an issue before, because i haven’t changed any settings? Appreciate the help thanks. I don’t know what it says, i got really annoyed with plex as nothing works and a week without tv, because plex forces me to update my server, that was working fine, by not allowing apps to connect, then updating server, then all apps stop functioning properly, then PHT stop working completely, then OPHT does the same thing, then PMP runs like crap. I don’t think this is working for me. I hate the PMP layout it is remote control unfriendly, it looks like a touch screen app. I was very happy with my setup before hand, and everything worked properly. I didn’t even have to change any settings for it to all work properly. Now if i disable the remote settings i can’t even use plex at home unless i run it off my server. I am think of 2 options, 1 try to uninstall everything and reinstall all of it, which is a ■■■■■ since i finally cleaned up most of my movies, tv and anime to show what has and hasn’t been watched and iu’ll have to do it all again. Option 2 which is sounding like it is going to be the solution is to pull my HD from my PC, put it in a case, plug it into my mac and use vlc, since i know it will work without issues. Basically i don’t see plex as being useful if it suddenly stops working when updates are available and after updating. I went through the settings, i went through a lot of stuff, i read a ton of stuff on here, nothing useful, and all in all i think plex just sold me on not using it anymore. I loved it when i found it, but i’ve been slowly finding it less useful. From inability to handle anime, to issues connecting whenever a server update is available but not applied, to this mess plex created on it’s own. Use your mac for snes emulator. I frustrated and tired of trying to solve this everyday. Thanks for trying to point out some things, but so far from what i can tell the setting are all right, plex just refuses to run properly.

I think you have some issue here, never had such problems in my experience, and I’ve used PHT, PMP and OpenPHT Now if i disable the remote settings i can’t even use plex at home unless i run it off my server. That’s not normal of course. Can you describe how your network is configured, and how your devices are connected to that network?
