Server Version#: 1.41 Client Version: 2025.15.0 Platform Version: 14 Folks, I have Plex server running on an RPi4 and Android as the “remote control” to cast to a Chromecast plugged into an HDMI port (and these days also to Chromecast built into the TV). All streaming is done from files on my lo…

Thanks for the reply. From what I can tell this is a similar issue, but they’re talking about pihole being the problem and I don’t run pihole.

[image] rjw_r: but they’re talking about pihole being the problem and I don’t run pihole. Any DNS resolver which is applying some sort of black list, and thus filtering the domain names it does (or doesn’t) resolve is affected. Your router also has a DNS resolver in it.

137202467117555.zip (31.0 KB) Here are the logs in case it helps. AFAIK I have no sort of blockers running anywhere on my network or on my pi and I’ve certainly not set anything up like that manually. I’ll have a scout round my router to see if I can see anything there.

I’ve had a good look round my router and I can see no reason why anything would be getting blocked. Is there anything else that this could be? Do the logs I attached help at all?

It might also be worth mentioning that I can see the Chromecasts on the Adroid app, the Plex logo appears on the TV via the Chromecast just fine once the appropriate Chromcast is selected on the Android app, and the Android app allows me to select what to stream, it’s just that nothing happens once …

I have the same problem… originally Plex couldn’t see cast devices until I whitelisted the config.claspws.tv domainvon my pihole. Now, when I cast I see the Plex logo come up and the app displays the show as 0:00 into a 0:00 show and never updated. Eventually the cast times out. All other apps (ex…

I’ve ended up by installing the Plex App on one of my TVs, didn’t realise such a thing existed, and it works a treat . Much nicer interface and more reliable. So it’s not the server that’s at fault, clearly. My other TV can’t stream as it needs the Chromecast. And, I must say once again, there…

Same issue for me since the app update.
