That nvme drive just hanging out next to the power cord is giving me a type of anxiety I never knew I had, thanks.

A smallish (6U) rack mount that you can bolt into the wall. Even if they rip it down it’ll weigh a ton and have locked doors (with ventilation obvi).

OP already acknowledged in their edit that logging in with a local IP 'fixed' the issue.

Fuck, thanks for posting that. I’m usually happy to be wrong about something but this sucks.

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

That's pretty fucked up. I'd be shootin off some angry emails to customer support. Sorry to hear that!

It means the same specific subnet. If you have multiple subnets (one for wired, one for wireless for example) it will also trigger that limitation unless you go in and manually tell it hey these are local.

lol crap, it's the new arch!

You can absolutely run plex in a local only mode. You don't sign it in to an account and then set your subnets in the local networks section like so. Or leave it blank if you have a standard flat home network.

I bought a plex lifetime pass for $100 over a decade ago and I never see ads like this. I only occasionally get the notice for plex pro week and stuff like that.

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

You should be able to. I have a wireguard tunnel to my parent's house and when they watch plex it doesn't go over the relay server (I can't port forward on starlink).

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

Good explanation. I'm out in the boonies with Starlink for internet right now so no port forwarding for me. I paid like $100 for a plex lifetime pass 12 years ago or something so none of my family or friends even notice most of the time. HEVC encoding helps too (you can squeeze 720p through their relay server with it).
