I've noticed recently that Plex Media Server is now transcoding files that used to Direct Play. The files are mkv container, h.264 with DD5.1 or DTS sound. This is happening on both of my Roku 3's; my Mac mini with Plex Home Theater still Direct Plays them no problem. I know for a fact these specific files used to Direct Play because I've tested with them before in the past... this happened once before where an update caused them to be transcoded vs. Direct Played. I am running PMS 0.9.14.6 and all clients up-to-date. Anyone else seeing this? Is this a known issue? I'm thinking the recent PMS update broke something.
