Plex authentication server is down again!

All vote here, I’ve just put in a feature request…

Server-side user authentication & LAN-only playback

Authentication issue on plex.tv this evening has highlighted for all plex users that to watch our own stuff, on our own networks, it needs a connection to the plex.tv api to authenticate users (and possibly other stuff too). Request is that this mechanism be enabled locally so that a closed LAN could carry out every function currently available on plex (except stream, of course). I want to be able to watch my own stuff without relying on internet uptime.
