Client stopped working. Web player is fine

[volcs0]

Windows 10.
Latest client (1.11).
Web player is fine.
The client does not work for any video - I tried many different types, resolutions, CODEC, etc. - it just hangs an spins.
Here is what my server log shows during one attempt.
I do not know where the player logs are in Windows 10 - but happy to check them if someone knows.
Thanks.

Can you share your Jellyfin Media Player logs via pastebin?

I tried it both with my external facing URL as well as via my internal IP via VPN. 
Same result for both.

Thanks for the help.

I'm assuming you are using a reverse proxy. If so, which one? Can you share your reverse proxy config?

Well I'm actually using cloudflare. But given the small amount that I myself use, it has not been an issue. By the way, the jellyfin client works on my Android TV. It's just on this PC where it doesn't work. It doesn't matter whether I use my external facing URL, or I do it on my local network by using zero trust. 

Thanks again for the advice..

Do you mean Zero Tier?

Do you have transcoding logs as well?

Any hardware transcoding setup/enabled?

For testing, are you able to turn that off?  Or have you tried that already?
