Hi, just trying out a new Apple 4K TV with a fresh download of the plex app today.
My media is direct streaming, yet according to the log the stream is copying both video and audio... so why no direct play?
The ATV is hooked up to a yamaha amp.

It appears to be simply changing the container from mp4 to mpegts???
