EDIT: There’s a known issue casting from Plex Web affecting some users. It is not specific to MPV Shim or any target device. Plex is investigating the problem.

What is the Plex MPV Shim?

Edit:

Found it. [GitHub - iwalton3/plex-mpv-shim: Cast media from Plex Mobile and Web apps to MPV. (Unofficial)](https://github.com/iwalton3/plex-mpv-shim)

You might want to contact the developer.
