This is a step forward, but it's still a pain, but I don't know exactly what would fix it. I presume that that then works because it's simply streaming to the PC, the PC is able to play it fine and in 4k, then the transcoding effectively happens as part of the Casting process and that has access to a) a much faster PC and b) a pretty decent Graphics card.
I can manually ask Plex to transcode in the background and play that when it's ready, but it's a pain as realistically that means watching whatever it was the next evening, but I realised I can open Plex on my PC and then Cast from there to the Chromecast. It generally works perfectly, but occasionally I end up with a download in a 4k format that's particularly big and it goes all stuttery because Plex is transcoding to 1080p on the fly.
I've got a Server running Plex that I use with the latest Google Chromecast dongles, the one with the remote control and Google TV.
