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?

    Does your host have a Plex pass? If not, you’ll need a remote pass to watch from outside the host’s network. Or your host needs a plex pass. They implemented this a while ago.
