Plex on FireTV 2 is very unreliable in playing videos:

Love Plex! I have been using it for past 2-3 years. The app on the FireTV 2 many times fails to resume the video. The error it gives is "failed to play video..please check server" something on those lines. At the same time if I try to cast the video from phone it works perfectly. Also sometimes the video fails to start on FireTV 2 and gives error. "Unable to reach server...please check if server is running" something along those lines. This is when I start the video from the beginning.

Every time I try to play the video the error comes back and I click "Retry". It does not go away until I restart the FireTV or force close Plex. BTW the server is running, wifi is connected on 5GHz. Other apps like Netflix work perfectly on the FireTV. No issues playing the same video using Chromecast. Source:here.

By clicking the Settings icon, you can adjust video and audio parameters like codec, bit rate, frame rate, sample rate, etc., in that way, you can take charge of the size and quality of the output files. In principle, the larger input values, the better output quality, but the corresponding larger file size.



Tip: From the specification of Amazon Fire TV 2, the video in H.264/AVC codec can be up to 1080p and 30 fps. So you can hit on “Settings” to open settings window where you can adjust the video size to 1080p and frame rate to 30 fps. Since AC3 is not sure playable or not, you can choose AAC and 5.1 channel for audio. If 5.1 sound is not supported, it will be limited to stereo audio.

Step 4. Start Videos to Amazon Fire TV 2 conversion

The last step: just hit the big “Convert” button of the program to finish MKV/AVI/WMV etc to Amazon Fire TV 2 conversion.
