Hi,
I have been trying to narrow this down, thinking it was originally a problem with the android app, but now I have come to the conclusion my Windows app is at fault:
When I run Plex for Windows, and play a file this is not recognized by the server. I.e. in server status, now playing it shows: "Nothing is currently being played." The server and app are on the same computer and I have used the loopback exemption tool.
If I use the Android apps or plex app on a different computer to play files it shows up in the now playing list, and the remote apps I use to start the cast show playing progress.
This is driving me crazy, please help!
Thanks
