Problem with plex player on apple tv

hi

It didn’t work for long - oh, there’s a problem again.
the application crashes with any dns

Request to developers - please make the error (cause of the problem) displayed on the screen.

thanks

ps

I downloaded the logs last time when changing the dns helped, but since I thought the problem was solved. I didn’t send them. In the archive, as I understand, 2 logs were saved after the application crashed.

logging(2).zip (126.5 KB)

Maybe i can share some troubleshooting i did on my end with the dev team:
I tried it on the newest and second newest Apple TV hardware.

It does not work on either and for my own server (local and remote) it would say “unavailable”.
For foreign servers it says “direct connection unavailable”.

I did try it on 2 different networks and ISPs. So its not a DNS issue.
I tried it on both those networks with the LG client, iphone, ipad → all work.

HOWEVER: If i use the same apple TV boxes and log in to that exact same server with the account of a family member (non local account but through sharing) IT WORKS.

Other people with accounts can also connect to the server.

So this might not be an issue with Apple TV but rather with specific accounts of users?
My guess would be some certificate issue, because on Apple TV it seems that you cannot enable insecure connections?

Plex was reinstalled
The Apple TVs have been reset completely
Cache on server has been deleted
Server has been unregistered and registered again to the useraccount

Apple TV Log shows nothing else than 1 line: HTTP Error 504: Error accessing Plex Media Server (NSURLErrorDomain) Could not connect to the server. (-1004).

Conclusion:
It has to be something tied to a specific user account AND using AppleTV
