Thanks a lot for this, Plex is my player of choice too.

With this version I also noticed audio dropouts or video frame skips on 720p H264+AC3 material which did not occur with 0.5.22, where playback was flawless.

Also, a number of fonts for subtitles (eg #GungSeo) don’t display anymore. The funny thing is that they did display just fine with 0.7.4 (and of course with 0.5.22) till I trashed my ~/Library/Application Support/Plex and restarted…

I just want to wish you a merry christmas and happy new year. Thank you so much for a wonderful program and your continued dedication. I’ve been using Plex most happily since its release (I’d been waiting for something like it for some time previous) and have pushed it and wowed friends as much as possible. I think it has single-handedly made people buy macs ; )

PS No problems and all pleasure for my leisure

what type of movie file are you guys having issues with ?? i tried a SD avi file earlier and for the 10 minutes i watched it didn’t see a problem .. i’ll test more video files (both SD and 720p HD files) later to see if i also have issues

Merry Christmas for you and the Plex team! Like many others, I am also very grateful for this awesome application.

BTW: same here with 0.7.4 video playback. But first: enjoy!

@Mastiff: yeah i’m looking forward to a new mini also to setup a dedicated htpc (or if i don’t get a new mini i’ll prolly pick up a old mini at the new discounted rates .. heheh) .. the only problem i see with the new mini’s is that i’m assuming that apple will ship the new mini’s with a mini-display port and at the moment there is still no mini-dp to hdmi cable .. monoprice.com is promising one next month but we’ll see

@Merrin: Yeah, I noticed the same thing. A bit confused, I made a change, people confirmed that it fixed the problem, but now the problem seems to remain. I’ll have to look into it more when I sober up!
