SurfShark VPN - Working ..but not

[oneseventhree 2]

Hi All,

For some reason when my VPN is on everything works BUT I cannot download image Meta data.

Movies and TV Shows play fine and it seems like everything is working but when I add in a new movie, for example, it doeesn't download the artwork for it.

Is there a way around this?

SharkVPN is only on to run 4 apps through it so everythinig should be working normally. 

 

Thanks!

Hi, if you try turning off the VPN, how do things compare?

Hi Luke,

I did some more googling as turning off the VPN meant everything worked perfect again and found the reddit about changing the Emby config file to turn off IP6. 

It seems to be working now but I’ll keep monitoring as I’ve left IP6 enabled on my VPN. 
 

Any chance of putting this in the GUI menu in the future?

Does this revert back when Emby is updated?

Thanks!
