Another option is to add tdarr to your *arr stack and have it automatically convert any problematic audio/video streams into ones your devices can handle.
I have it set to encode truehd(?) audio since none of my devices support it and it also ensures there’s a video stream that my roku device can play since it’s a bit pickier than my smart tv
But sometimes the only option is the one that I’ll need to encode so it plays everywhere.
I’ve tried to balance it out so I get pretty good quality most of the time. But it skews towards whatever “just works” the most. I want to minimize having to find stuff manually myself or investigating why plex refuses to play something.
And I’m not a quality absolutist as long is it’s good enough.
