I used to be able to play media located on my WD MyCloud Duo server on my Hisense TV using Plex, but it doesn’t work anymore.
Plex Server Version# (running on WD MyCloud Duo): 1.42.2.10156-f737b826c
Plex Player Version# (running on my Hisense TV): Client Version 5.93.2, Platform Version V0000.09.09A.P0930
Plex Player advanced settings: I tested the following, but none work.
| Allow Insecure Connections | Prefer Insecure Connections |
|---|---|
| Always | Never |
| On same network as server | Never |
| Never | Never |
| Always | On same network as server |
| On same network as server | On same network as server |
| Never | On same network as server |
| Always | Always |
| On same network as server | Always |
| Never | Always |
Media Server Status indicated on Plex Player: Indirect
Connection type indicated on MyCloud: sometimes Relay, sometimes Local
I can browse my media, but when I try to play any, I get a “Checking connection speed” message forever.
Also I’m not sure how I’m supposed to set up ethernet cables. Currently, I have 1 cable connecting the MyCloud to my router, and one connecting my router to the TV.
Grateful for your help!
