Hi,
Tried the great Plex Integration from JackJPowell today. But cant connect it to my Plex Server.
With Local Connection (IP and Standard Port 32400) I only get connection refused.
The Plex Server is located in a different VLAN but the Remote got full Access to it.
What is the MyPlex Connection? What is the Server Name there?
Best Regards
The names of the Plex servers can be changed under Settings > General. The server name can be changed there.
Tried it with the Name - also getting “Connection Refused”.
Would like to use the Local Connection Anyway.
Any Tipps why it would not work with the Local Connection?
EDIT: One thing came in my mind. I have forced Secure Connections in my Plex Server. The Integration needs the http Port.
Does it mean it will only work with not forced Secure Connections?
Did you ever find a fix for this? I’m having the same issue with a similar setup (server on a different VLAN to remote, but firewall rule allowing specific access)
I don’t believe it’s HTTPS related as I don’t have strict TLS enabled and I can query my Plex server over HTTP. The only thing I wondered was looking at the session details, the Plex server is actually seeing it as a WAN connection due to the differing subnet. This is from the session xml
In case anyone else comes across this, the issue is indeed that Plex sees a client with an IP in a different subnet as a WAN client, and the integration then ignores it. As I’m running my Plex server on my NAS, I added an interface on my media VLAN and set Plex to specifically use this interface in the settings. Signed out the Plex clients (they were still reporting as WAN beforehand) and signed back in and then they correctly showed as LAN clients and the integration found them.
