Remote play is not working for on Plexamp 3.0.3. I can stream music from my server trough wifi when I am at home, but remotely it does not work. I can browse my server content, but when starting playblack i just get a loading icon (even data gets downloaded in the background according to my phone’s stats). It’s not a networking or server error, as the “big” android Plex app is working fine .

here’s my logs. it seems that plex tries to connect to the server locally instead of remote connection. maybe readding the server while not connected to my home network would solve the problem, but i have found no way in plexamp to remove the server/add a new server
