Okay... I think this could be a bug when the nVidia Shield TV acts as a Plex Client and the Plex Server is running on an external Linux Ubuntu Server. I hope this is the right subforum to post this.

**Result: **
Error! Please restart the Plex Media Server App -
I restarted the App and the nVidia Shield multiple times. It's always the same error.
The error appears nearly immediatley when you press play.
As soon as you deactivate the external subtitle in the settings of the video playback start smooth and plays over direct play.
Does anyone of you experience the same problems?
Can anyone try to reproduce the above setting to check if I'm right?
Can somebody please take a look at the log file?
