Unstable after server upgrade to 4.9.1.90

Hi Team,

Been running a stable system for years. A couple of days ago video would not play on Android TV app. I would just get a blue spinning wheel after hitting the play button. Checked the server and it had hung during an update. I finished the update, restarted the system etc. and everything seemed ok. The next day video would not play again, same spinning wheel. I restarted everything and it seemed to work again, but not long after video stopped playing. When I go into my library through a web browser on my PC (not the same system hosting the server) it works fine, while at the same time not working on the Android TV web app. 

Another weird thing is when I am getting the blue spinning wheel in the Android TV app, if I check the dashboard on the server it shows the video as playing. I am also able to send a message from the server to the Android TV app while the blue wheel is spinning. 

The Android TV app is up to date. This only seems to have started with the latest server update.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Update. I read the posts about the Android TV app; I updated to the beta version, same problem. I also installed the Android app, same problem. 

Still working without issue through a web browser. Seems to be something to do with the TV itself.

Update, ended up being nothing to do with Emby at all! As part of further trouble shooting (read trying to find anything for my kids to watch on TV), I noticed no video streaming was working at all. Somehow the TV had local and internet access, but video was being blocked for some reason. This led me to the router. Restarted the router and everything is working again. Random!

Long live the Android TV app!
