I use Infuse on mutiple ATVs and ios devices, and most often I want to continue watching something on my bedroom TV that, minutes ago, I was watching from my living room ATV. It can take 1-3 minutes for the Watching row to update and refresh. I use Plex and share 1 or 2 servers. If I click on Library during that time it usually says Fetching Up Next. I also have iCloud Sync on. Is there anything I can do on either ATV to speed up that wait time?

i also agree with you, it takes few minutes to sync up. i have over 200mbps connection but sync up is slow on apple tv.
Are you using Direct Mode or Library Mode for the Plex servers?
There are numerous improvements for iCloud Sync currently in progress which could help speed things up.

Library mode is OFF in the living room, and ON in the bedroom. I was trying to decide which I liked better. Would it help if I have them on or off? I look forward to those improvements to iCloud Sync.
This has been a long standing issue. I still notice all other areas apart from the continue watching update almost instantly. Using Direct.

I’ve tried bot Libray mode and Direct mode, and from what I can tell, both are equally slow to update.
When I use the Plex client, the first thing it does it fetch the “Continue Watching” data, and the update is immediate. I’d sure love to see Infuse behave the same way.
