*Disclaimer: this H264 setting is available on Android and Android TV only. I’ll accept a glitch if one should ever occur, but I won’t accept mysterious errors. My Xiaomi Mi 11 ‘officially’ supports level 6.1, but even there I disabled the maximum level for H264 as well. PLEX doesn’t recommend increasing the supported levels (which may cause glitches in playback), but I did anyway and it worked like a charm. Your device is probably perfectly capable of playing the file(s), even if not officially supported by your chipset. So go to Settings > Advanced > Player > Maximum level H264 > and set it to a higher level or disable it. When I tried playing a specific episode encoded I got an error because it was encoded at level 5.0. My Android TV stick ‘officially’ supports levels up to 4.1 (which is the ‘recommended’ level according to PLEX). It’s not always visible, but on certain systems, when you go to “file information”, you’ll see the level of h.264 compression. Increase your ‘maximum levels for H.264’ or even ‘disable’ them altogether in PLEX It beats me why PLEX doesn’t try to play the original file in stead of just showing a playback error. You should change these settings anyway if you know the server doesn’t support transcoding to avoid errors.
