I download items from my local Plex server via a DLNA, however in the latest version this isn't as seamless as it used to be.
When downloading a video it briefly flashes 'Downloading' over the item title but then there's no progress update available in the Downloads section so there's no confirmation that anything's actually happening until the file suddenly appears in the Video tab. I wasn't sure if this was something to do with the DLNA method so I've attempted to download directly from the server file system via SMB and FTP but when navigating these don't give the option to download as before.
Is anyone else experiencing this too or can you advise if I'm doing something wrong?
(As an FYI I'm using this method because Plex insists on converting everything before downloading using it's native app, plus VLC provides audio boosting and increased playback speeds)
