Description of problem:
The local Plex instance is configured not to transcode the video stream. On attempt to play any channel, there is a message "Playback error. Source is unavailable". When the transcode option is set, the video is transcoded by plex. Thus, there is double transcoding: one on the telly and another on the plex sides.
Is it possible to make a stream Direct-streamable for plex to not have double transcoding?
