log in on a local IP and not the network name and it's working again. but I'll be moving to jellyfin from now

I would go with jellyfin, but my stupid old Samsung TV has tizen and can't find a way to install it.

    You need to setup a developer account so you can install apps from local sources

    I use an nVidia Shield for it. There's probably cheaper ones, but you tend to get what you pay for, and I've got a few 4KBR remuxes that even that struggles on.

    It's been pretty decent.

    Supports Dolby Vision/Atmos etc. Image based subtitles (e.g. those ripped from a disc) end up getting transcoded, but that seems the only thing it doesn't natively support. Had trouble with AV1 but I'm not sure if that's a general thing or that one specific file.

    Get an Onn streaming device from Walmart for ~$30
