+hubbe@ since he's working on this code right now.

Could you please provide exact repro URL or Web App where media can be played to test this.

Tried https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/plex/fpniocchabmgenibceglhnfeimmdhdfm/related?hl=en available in Chrome Webstore but don't have any Plex Media Server to proceed with testing.

Ahh this gets a little tricky then.

You need to run a Plex Server then proxy it with Nginx using the configuration in the git I linked above to recreate the issue.

If it's too much of a hassle for you to do that, email me your Plex username and I'll add you to my server and you can test off that.

I'm not sure if the issue is present in the Chrome App, it probably is I've had it in the HTML5 browser version https://app.plex.tv

Unable to triage this issue from TE end, hence adding "TE-NeedsTriageFromMTV" label

Removing from bisect bucket since TE cannot repro.

A work around was found, setting the read_timeout to a high value in Nginx allows resuming playback.

Might be possible to recreate the issue without Plex following the details found in that post, this is where I found the fix.

reporter@, can you provide a repro url in order for us to investigate this bug?

ping reporter@ again. Do you still repro this bug? if so, please provide a repro url otherwise we can't do anything.

It is still possible to reproduce this bug I provided all the steps I can.

- Install Plex Media Server, add some content longer than 10m.
- Run it behind an Nginx reverse proxy i.e. https://github.com/toomuchio/plex-nginx-reverseproxy
- Start playback for 1m, pause for >5m, resume, network error thrown.
Not reproducible in Opera or Chrome older than 50.0.2661.75, tied to the other issue I linked above.

I found a workaround to the issue on Nginx's side by increasing the read_timeout. You can see my notes on that here.
https://github.com/toomuchio/plex-nginx-reverseproxy/issues/21

Beyond this and what I've already provided, I cannot provide anything further to assist.

If the issue isn't going to be fixed and there doesn't seem to be any interest here to investigate probably best to close this off, people can find this issue and find my work around of increasing the read_timeout. Or use Opera or an older version of Chrome without the issue.

I forgot to mention but obviously remove the read_timeout workaround in the linked Nginx config, when trying to reproduce.

as per c#11, this issue still repro. give to hubbe@ to investigate. 

This is a server-side issue.
The server provides a streaming-only interface and then closes the connection, which cannot be resumed. Other browsers works around the issue by downloading and caching large amounts of data, which chrome intentionally does not do.
