Plex has been working fine until recently (I’m assuming after Plex updates). I can no longer stream movies on Amazon Fire TV Stick. I have no problem streaming off PC. I have two different servers and have exactly the same issue with both. All my movies appear in the library however when I select o…

There is a DNS problem affecting access for many users. You can monitor at https://status.plex.tv/ . Do not make any server changes until it is resolved. Regarding Android TV clients… There is a problem with the current version of Plex Android / Android TV apps and older versions of Plex Media S…

I was hopeful, but this doesn’t resolve the issue with Firestick and Netgear router versions of Plex. Still a dead dog. Plex seems more interested in being an IPTV service than addressing concerns in their core audience. This problem is way long overdue to be fixed. Plex does not have a support team…

Same issue on all my Fire Stick and Roku devices. PC/web and xbox clients work 100% Extremely annoying, and didn’t want to have to buy a bunch of Apple TV’s right now.

@genewell If using your ISP’s DNS, try using 8.8.8.8 (Google), 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) or other public DNS server. Do you have a pihole, pfsense, or any other such firewall / DNS server in your network? If so, see the DNS Rebinding section of How to Use Secure Server Connections regarding the plex.d…

@FordGuy61 - Short of hiring an IT person, none of this is going to happen. My router has a built in plex server (I think the only one out there that does). It should just work… and it used to until we got new updates from Plex apps. That means nothing else has changed. The error is in the apps them…

[image] genewell: It should just work… Yes, it should. [image] genewell: and it used to until we got new updates from Plex apps Yes, it did. [image] genewell: The error is in the apps themselves… Never said it wasn’t. I was hoping to find a work-around to get things working a…

Thanks FordGuy… I’ll give it a shot. I just don’t have a lot of time and frankly NOT hanging out on my plex server has opened up a whole bunch of time to do more productive stuff. :grinning:

I had the same issue and fixed it as following : 1- Force application to stop (on Amazon FireTV : Parameters/Applications/Plex) 2- Erase application datas and cache (same path) 3- Re boot FireTV Stick You will have to resynchronize your account on https:\plex.tv/link And then it should work aga…

I’m guessing you don’t have a Netgear Router serving plex. I followed your steps and at the end I’m still getting “An error occurred while attempting to play this video. Please check your connection and try again.” In short, nothing has changed. PS: If it helps anyone following this thread: Plex Ap…

I’m having the same exact issue. Netgear Router, Firestick 4K, was working fine for months, then updates came through on the Firestick, and now I get the same message every time I try to watch a video: “An error occurred while attempting to play this video. Please check your connection and try again…
