Hi,
When connecting to the mcloud hub the Appium Inspector tries to connnect to WDA mjpeg port using hubs ip address (this behavior can be seen using Wireshark). As a result the Appium inspector loads only the list of elements and shows the screen preview loading as shown in the screen below:

This issue is only when you try to connect to iOS devices.

Setup:
MCloud 2.5.3
MCloud-Agent 2.5.5 (tested on Mac and ubuntu)
Appium Inspector 2023.8.4
IPhone 14 with iOS 16.0

Edit:
In an attempt to find a solution for this problem, I changed the zebrunner-farm script to use 2 additional unique parameters for wda_port and mjpeg_port for ios containers with port fowarding. Thanks to this, I am able to establish a direct connection with the device using the ip:port from "remoteHost" but still no luck with finding why the hub forwards everything for android but not for ios.
