Code: [Select]

minecraft 60 IN A 51.195.188.144
_minecraft._tcp.play.  IN SRV 0 5 80 minecraft.elementia.tk.

dns result (using the servers own dns via keycdn)

so its pretty much just registering out as nx domain

https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns/dns-records/dns-srv-record/

1)  You are looking up a "A" record via DIG.  to look up SRV records, you use "dig SRV (domain)"
2)  play.elementia.tk is a NX domain, becasue it has no A record
3)  because you ended play with a period, Bind does not attack the rest of the domain name.  By RFC, any domain ending with a . is considered absolute.  So I'm honestly suprised your not getting an Error of an out of zone domain name.  The following line should work correctly.

_minecraft._tcp.play  IN SRV 0 5 80 minecraft.elementia.tk.
or
_minecraft._tcp.play.elementia.tk.  IN SRV 0 5 80 minecraft.elementia.tk.

Finally, the best way to check a SRV recrod is using the "Host command"

host -t SRV _minecraft._tcp.play.elementia.tk
