I have successfully set up my plex home server behind a netbird reverse proxy, and can access it through my specified address. However, the remote access is not working because I haven’t opened the port on my local router (which was the point of using netbird). This is because Plex seems to do some dynamic DNS magic in the background and tries to connect to the public IP of my home network.

This is nice and all, but can I somehow force plex to use the domain of my netbird installation, instead of my home network? I currently use the router of my ISP, which for reasons unknown to me doesn’t have the option to forward ports.
