Plex tv link blank - update: resolved itself

Hello, I had recently reset my samsung tv and re-added Plex app. When I started the Plex app it showed the Plex tv link screen but the code is blank.

I am running Plex server (version 1.40.5.8921) server on Windows.

Network settings have not changed. I’m connecting via lan.

This is usually a sign that the TV cannot communicate with plex.tv
How old is this particular TV model? Older devices do not support the safe encryption method which is nowadays used.

It’s a tv from around 2017-ish. It had no issues communicating prior to the reset. Network settings have not changed.
Strange.

The funny thing is that the issue resolved itself after leaving it for a few days. :person_shrugging:t2:
