Ok I have the latest Plex media server on a mac. They used to play fine before I did the last 2 server updates.
Nothing other than that has changed.
I have an i7 macbook pro with 8gb of ram.
I try playing them on ios, web browser, and xbox 360 all dont work. If I play the file within my mac it works great.
What is confusing is they played well before. So Far I only count 3 movies of mine that wont play. but i have 228 so it will take sometime.
below is the media info of one movie that wont play
