Unable to view photos without transcoding

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices

As in:

https://<HOST>:32400/photo/:/transcode?url=<PHOTO_PATH>.JPG%3FX-Plex-Token%<TOKEN>&X-Plex-Token=<TOKEN>

Omitting the width and/or height returns a 400 Bad Request.

Need to take out the :/transcode endpoint part. That’s why. That will force the transcode.
I will ask if there’s a way. My mistake. Forgot. I do need to ask if there’s a public facing endpoint for that.

/photo?url=........... ?

There is a way

Thanks.

I tried removing :/transcode as you explained, but I just get an xml file.

https://<HOST>:32400/photo?url=<PHOTO_PATH>.JPG%3FX-Plex-Token%<TOKEN>&X-Plex-Token=<TOKEN>

Gives

<MediaContainer size="0" content="plugins"> </MediaContainer>

Hi Chuck,

Did you find an endpoint to enable direct photo access?

Hi Chuck,

Is there any resolution to this issue? It seems as though the api provides no way for any client to fetch an image without the server transcoding it, even if the client is able to directly display the original image on the server.
