    You know it’s stuff like this that forces me to rewrite dns on the firewall, but that’s probably not even possible if they use DNS over TLS.

      It flat out refuses to work when you do that.

      Mine was working fine with that setup until one day it just wasn’t. The Google home setup just fails with no explanation. And tracking down the reason was a huge pain in the ass because that type of network configuration is such a niche use case.

      Sorry, I’m still kind of pissed about it. I just want to use a hostname for jellyfin casting instead of the ip address.
