Circling back on this outstanding issue I have and still banging my head against the wall.
I wanted to go a step further and rule out any Plex database issues, so I ran the ChuckPDa DB repair script and it all came back clean:

Any other ideas?
To summarize the issue, I have three Google TV boxes (onn) where the Plex app no longer see’s my Plex server, two are internal and one is external, and a few remote friends that also reported their that they’re not able to see my Plex server in their webUI via a browser. Also, I keep losing my server and libraries in the Plex webUI via browser on several internal devices.
However, my internal Samsung TV Plex native app works, my Android phone Plex app also works (internal and external), and the majority of my remote users work fine using Plex app on their TVs.
How bizarre…
