Anyone’s airplay working? Mine isn’t. Gets the video screen come up on the Apple TV. But there’s a red blocked 🚫 symbol bottom left.


Unsure if it’s the apps, or if I’ve don’t something on my network

I normally get the red symbol if dns is not set right . Do you have DNS or VPN loaded on the Apple TV?

Dns for the Apple TV is to a docker container that then has the dns4me servers. I might have to play with it a little.

Yeah it’s definitely the dns. If I forced it to my regular servers and not under dns4me or the container airplay works.

Dns dns4me doesn’t have an option for sky go. As I’d turn it on to try it

What about trying the sky sport one? I haven’t checked for ages they have changed their options a bit. There will be a conflict somewhere that you have switched on.

Yeah did try that. I think I’ve found the call. As the container is using dns4me I should be able to grab that dns query and fire it through pihole which will revolve it properly

I’m sure this was working a week or so ago. Not sure what’s changed.

Updating my dnsmasq for that sever to pihole resolved it.

Yeah, I'm asking dns4me why it wasn't working for me as default, and why i needed this workaround.  Mostly for curiosity.
