What not very consistent? They it doesn’t find the intro or that we can’t send the seek command to the client?

What version of the plex client is your Samsung tv? (Just wanted to see if we had the same client)

[UnR34L]

Version: Plex for Samsung 3.84.2 (The updated UI)

When I say not consistent, when I first ran it I got it working with chrome, then after that it stopped working, today I ran the container with --privileged and it worked again, I'm still trying stuff so I didn't want to mention it until I'm sure it's a bug.

But with the TV it just doesn't connect.

Also, I was looking through some old issues regarding plexapi and samsung, https://github.com/pkkid/python-plexapi/issues/161 - It definitely worked with the plexapi :)

[Hellowlol]

Okei, so i pushed a update that simply ignores the connection errors. Lets see if that works, as my samsung version was 1 something...

Also can you try:

import logging
import time
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

from plexapi.server import PlexServer
baseurl = 'http://192.168.0.54:32400'
token = 'TOKEN'

plex = PlexServer(baseurl, token)

alien = plex.library.section('1.Movies').get('Alien')
client = plex.client("TV UE40KU6000")
client.playMedia(alien)

time.sleep(15)
client.seekTo(600*1000)

And verify that it seeking on that client works?

[UnR34L]

Getting the same error, tried with python2.7 and python3. I think an update has broken something.

This https://github.com/pkkid/python-plexapi/issues/161#issuecomment-318915852 exact script used to work but now it's not. Same error.

[Hellowlol]

Okei, if thats the case run the script copy the out and open a new issue on plexapi.

Closing this as its a upstream issue.
