I did a Wireshark capture and I'm seeing an HTTP Error 406 from Tautulli.

I've checked the Tautulli logs but not seeing anything to explain this. Hopefully someone has seen this before.

In an effort to eliminate factors I installed Rainmeter 4.3.1 and TDM 2.0 onto another server. I configured the variables to point back to the server running PMS and Tautulli (where TDM doesn't work) and on this server I'm getting data back no problem. This suggests PMS and Tautulli are ok but Rainmeter is having some sort of issue. I've uninstalled Rainmeter on the original server and moved the skin directory away so it's as vanilla as possible. However, after I reinstall Rainmeter and TDM and configure the variables again it's still broken. It seems to be something going wrong with the WebParser sending the request to Tautulli that results in the HTTP Error 406 Not Acceptable message but I have no idea what.

This is an interesting case. I would like to discuss this further over Discord if possible?

I've installed the latest version, and I'm keeping getting those errors:

I've edited the configuration file like:

But I keep with the error in the log and this:

Have anyone had this problem too?

Let me know when you're available. I'm in the UK so need to take into account timezones.
