Hi, sorry for the late reply, I’ve been away.

What I meant by client logs was the logs from the device you are watching from. For example, if you are watching the content on an Android device, while the content is on your PC, then Android is the client. Those logs can be acquired by following this article. Similarly, iOS logs, Apple TV Logs, and Web Logs.
