Ah so the Roku version of Plex might not have the capability the client usually would (or the hardware doesn't). Out of interest is there a client that would never ask for a transcode? The Roku may get replaced with something with an Ethernet port.

I always answer the same... But the cheapest NAS and an Nvidia shield... Put the Plex server on the Nvidia shield, cable it up and connect that to your telly. The NAS you can put anywhere, the Nvidia shield connects to your telly and the network. The Nvidia can be on wi-fi if you don't need 4k

Ah yeah, I knew you were a fan of the shield. So it just pulls files directly from the NAS and plays them like a PV would. That does sound like a more sensible approach tbh.
