Plex: not all Plex server ports are exposed

[zacbrown]

Hi,

I'm having trouble with the Plex chart due to it not exposing all the ports that Plex supports0.

As currently setup, it only exposes the primary port - 32400. However, Plex includes a DLNA server as well as some other auto-discovery ports:

UDP: 1900 (access to the Plex DLNA Server)
UDP: 5353 (older Bonjour/Avahi network discovery)
TCP: 8324 (controlling Plex for Roku via Plex Companion)
UDP: 32410, 32412, 32413, 32414 (current GDM network discovery)
TCP: 32469 (access to the Plex DLNA Server)

I'm not familiar with Helm charts and wasn't sure how to hack this into the chart.

• DLNA cannot work out-of-the-box anyway (cannot do so cross NAT)
• The older discovery protocol also cannot work out-of-the-box (cannot do so cross NAT) and is depricated
• GDM discovery isn't really needed when a token is used on install. Simply put: Your client will fetch the announced url/ip from the plex servers and broadcasts to all of those, untill one responds which works quite well.

There are 3 types of discovery for plex:

• Old Discovery (wont work with kubernetes)
• GDM (Might technically work) discovery without being logged in
• Discovery using your Plex account
