Plex has paywalled my server!

For #3, subnet routing.
Where do I find Wireguard for my LG TV?
You can’t expect my relatives living 100+ miles away to start monkeying around with their router. That be like asking you to set the spark plug timing correctly using a timing gun.

Under Settings > Network there is a configuration item exactly for this. I'm running host network, but you can add the docker networks here as well.
LAN networks is only available for plex pass users

Every non-Free Software will betray you eventually. It's only a matter of time.
I just wonder if plex will ever sell the list of movies and IP address of everyone. Many people have the ARRs to auto download, even stuff still in theaters. What good is a VPN when plex knows your email and IP.

How do I load and configure Tailscale on my TCL Roku TV?
This is an answer im looking for.
Natively, you can't. Hackishly, you could put a small VPN capable router in front of it that would manage the connection.
That's according to Dr Internet, so I haven't tried it, but it seems very likely to be accurate.

Old news, but time for Jellyfin. I made the switch a couple months ago. Some minor teething issues, but better, IMO, especially now as my family all have LDAP users and that just works.
awesome. thanks for chiming in. I will have to check how to do external streaming without opening my network up to the world (metaphorically).

It all starts to make sense then. I need to set Jellyfin up soon. It's only a matter of time before they come after the "Lifetime" purchasers like myself. I bought it over a decade ago at this point.

I don't have that configuration:
As someone else mentioned, this is only available to PlexPass users. Sorry for the confusion! I bought my lifetime sub over a decade ago at this point and forget about these inconsistencies that used to just be part of the product.

the actual problem here is that OPs network is not configured correctly and that Plex detects that the physical local client is actually accessing the server from a totally other network.
Fairly common when you use docker to run Plex and have the container run in bridge mode. This will put the container in the docker network that will then be different to your local network.
Plex determines if a stream is local or remote based on the network so when your container is in bridge mode, the physical local client will be a remote connection because of the different networks.
And since remote streaming requires Plex pass since end of April, you will see this.

I thought free software was when you were the product and non-free software actually supported developers.
Or do you mean non-OSS?
I mean non-Free Software.

well, except WinRAR

Sell or get subpoena'd; tomayto, tomahto.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Did you even read the link? You don't need it on every device. It's not really that difficult to understand.
I AM A 48 YEAR OLD FORMER FUCKING TRUCK DRIVER FOR FUCKS SAKE, and yet, I still managed to set up tailscale on my phone and a computer, and then access my stuff that ISNT running tailscale in any way, shape or form, from my phone, simply because I decided to figure it the fuck out.
Stop being so damned lazy.
I am so fucking tired of this "cater to the lowest common denominator" bullshit.

Therefore it's literally impossible for me to watch my media locally, way to go Plex.

Yup, that's exactly the problem I have, it's ridiculous that it doesn't let me stream from a local network just because it thinks that it's local network is only the docker one, it should be fairly simple for Plex to figure out it's accessible via a direct connection and it doesn't need to route through the Plex servers for this. But it won't get fixed because it pushes people to pay, hell from what people are saying here the config to fix this is paywalled so they create a problem for which they sell you the solutions.

Creating a tailnet using a custom domain is considered for business use.
Well, that sucks for me. I was planning on using my domain name.
custom domain
From what I gather, this refers to the email address you sign up with.
If you use something like a non-gmail email address when signing up, it starts you off on the business plan with a trial (which you can instantly change to free). (Note: they're gonna change this auto-detection thing with shared domains soon due to a security hole.)
I believe you can still use a custom domain (instead of the randomised *.ts.net provided one) with DNS lookups in your tailnet, on the personal (free) plan.

Honestly, I'd be rather shocked if this wasn't already the case.
Moreover they probably have a database of everything you've ever watched and your IP and email address, just waiting to be leaked to the internet through sale or ransom.

Thank you Internet stranger for reminding me of this sketch.
What's it from?

...wireguard
(there are android TV apps for wireguard, not that any normie can actually move a client file to it and turn it on, or could be bothered to)
Thats not what I meant. I of course have wireguard set up for administration and my own streaming needs. But friends of mine who were able to use plex by just making an account but now they cant because of course there is no relay server etc. I'll have to think of a way to make it available to them (easily!) without putting my network at risk.

The same tailscale that announced last week that they are going to start charging?
announced
What announcement? There's been a new Personal Plus plan around for several months already - introduced without much fanfare, and simply brings the user count from 3 to 6 for a fixed small fee. Presumably this is due to feedback from personal users wanting to contribute something other than nothing.
Where do you see the free Personal plan has changed at all?
