Good morning, I took advantage of the launch of the latest version of Jellyfin, which was version 12. I tried to configure it in Yatse on my local network; however, Yatse says that the password is wrong, a fact that I am sure is not, so much so that I created a server without any content just to test with the password 123456, and even so, Yatse says that the password or username is incorrect. Could you help me? Windows 11 x64, Jellyfin 12, and Yatse 12.

\*Important detail: I can log into Jellyfin through any browser on my smartphone with the username and password, but not through Yatse.

\*\*Same server worked correctly on Symfonium.

I have the same problem after upgrading to jf 12. My username and password haven’t changed but 12 is giving me authentication errors.
