Server Version#: 1.26.1.5798  
Player Version#: Android based when remote (Firestick, Chromecast, smartphone)

Been having crazy issues for months with remote streaming to android based devices (chromecast and firestick) Most of the time getting playback error. I have turned off relay, set the original to avoid transcoding and turned off adguard. No other type of device like Rokus or PS5 have this issue and local playback is not an issue. I seems like I can get it work if I set it to insecure stream. Any ideas. Im getting to the point of calling it quits with plex out of pure frustration.

Here is an older log the last time I had a chance to grab accurate logs.
