So a friend(a) of mine is running a plex server. They gave me and another friend(b) access to it.

friend(b) can watch everything just fine without a subscription but everytime i want to watch something i get the alert to buy a remote pass.

I read that i could be a bug that should be resolved after a restart of the server but this didn’t resolve it at all.

the thing is that i have some streams that i started which i can resume watching without a problem. I just cant start a new stream from the beginning, even if i have seen the stream before.

Does anybody else has/had similar problems or knows something about whats going on?

EDIT: Okay so I could get around it with a htpc-client. No idea why, it just works.

    Still happens after reinstalling the phone app.

    We use the webapp so it is the same.

    I am able to stream audiobooks trough the webapp but I read that audio books are except from the remote pass anyway.

    Tried to download the desktop app but it won’t display. So I tried to figure out what’s up with that. Guess it has something todo with Wayland/x11 on EOS/KDE but I’m getting pretty frustrated/tired right now.
