Hello,
I am experiencing a strange behaviour with apps using VLCkit (including VLC’s iOS client) when connected using Tailscale. If I connect to my Plex server, the music won’t start for about 4min. I did activate the logs. I’m by no means and expert but noticed that VLC seems to attempt to connect using HTTP/1.1 twice which fails. It eventually tries using HTTP/1.0 which succeeds right away.
I thought at some point that the delay could be due to some buffering issue but I have monitored the network usage in the plex server and can confirm that it only starts streaming once the HTTP/1.0 connection is established and continuously streams from there without any bandwith issue.
I am not sure if this is a VLC issue or a Tailscale issue. Not that:
– I am using the local IP address as Tailscale translates that into the relevant IP. It works fine with other apps and the same behaviour is experienced if I use the Plex server’s Tailscale IP.
– I do not experience any lag in VLC if using a Samba share, just http.
– I am not experiencing this delay when connected to my home network using wifi (not using Tailscale)
– same issue is experienced with Navidrome app using VLCkit (LMP Music) – the issue has been reported it likely to be a VLCkit issue
– no issue with Navidrome app NOT using VLCkit (Amperfy/Substreamer)
Would anyone have any suggestion? It’s a bit painful having to way 4 min for a song to start…
