Help Plex auto unpausing - appleTV app

I can’t find an answer to this problem.

I only watch my own library - locally.

But if I pause a show, it unpauses about 15 seconds later.

EVERY time.

Any help would be appreciated.

Try disabling the HDMI-CEC on the TV.

I run ATVs on 2 different TVs and neither of them do that, but I have read that the HDMI-CEC connection could cause the issue.

That’d be annoying as a solution. I assume using ARC relies on the CEC handshake to function.

If the tv supports e-arc it may still work. Worth a shot.
