  So now that you know the problem was user error, why exactly are you still switching to jellyfin?

    how is using a FQDN user error when the logs show the access is from a 10.1.1.x address?

      You’re using the wrong address, that’s how it’s user error.

      If you just use the Plex app you wouldn’t have this issue either. Were you watching media on your Plex server machine through a browser instead of just opening Plex, and you typed in a url in the browser?

        • No where on the network page does it say to use app.plex.tv when you have a custom domain with ssl certs
        • I wanted to cast to a dumb TV with a chromecast, the macos app doesn’t seem to support that
        • if it was my network it would still not work, but it is again with no changes to the local network or to plex settings
        • Plex is seeing a local IP in the logs when accessed via a FQDN
