Cannot fetch metadata art when VPN is enabled

[problem_head]

First of all, thank you for bearing with me. I have solved the problem after more digging. I removed Jellyfin from Mullvad's split tunnel exclusion list. I already had Local File Sharing enabled, but apparently that is the second component to this fix per the link below. For whatever reason and contrary to what other threads on other sites have recommended, when you add Jelly to the split tunnel in Mullvad, it will NOT fetch the metadata. I hope this helps somebody who is Googling this issue. Thanks!
