From what i have read and tested, there doesn’t seem to be a way to change which port plex listens on for ipv6 connections.

The remote access page doesn’t seem to affect anything IPv6 related.

I have been able to get around this limitation with netsh portproxy on windows but this isn’t ideal as there is overhead and plex doesn’t get accurate information about where the data is coming from.

Does anyone know of a registry line or config file that would allow me to change which port plex listens on for IPv6?

You can get around it with a reverse proxy, but as far as I know we cannot change the listening port of the PMS application itself.

Is there a specific reason why you want to?

The reason i wanted to change the port was to be able to tunnel the ipv6 traffic through cloudflare for free ipv4 support, they only support a handful of ports.

I ended up using portproxy in windows to proxy the port over to one that is supported
