PS5 App will not connect to Local Servers

Another PS5 user here - running latest version of both server and app on PC, IOS, PS4 and PS5. Setting the PS5 app to always secure sorts out the connection issue and as I have my own cert it makes perfect sense. All other platforms work with both insecure and secure.

As security is a growing concern it makes perfect sense for Plex to develop this even more …maybe an easy implementation of Let’s Encrypt or similar would be great for those that do not already have a certificate.

Next issue I have is that when playing an episode from series or a movie from the internal catalogue the Plex App on PS5 dos not register them as played. Also skipping intro or just skipping 30 seconds often result in a stall with the buffering icon spinning forever so communication is till bad even with the secure settings.
