In order to use the MyPlexMedia plugin you need a server running PlexMediaServer software. Just make sure you have a current version installed (the latest really!) I'm totally new to this - what was it called again - Plex thingie

If you already have a plex server and set up sections like Music, Video or TV-Shows you can skip this page and head directly to the Plugin Configuration.

I have the server software running on a Synology NAS with 8x3tb hdds in it.Īnd using sickbeard and sab on the same server means its a completely autonomous solution.I already have Plex Media Server up and running! (i sometimes change my wife's shows during the day to die hard movies from work ) All controlled with iphone's or iPads from anywhere in the house or even outside of the house. Please see Plex Media Server for more info on how to set this required software up. We have a chrome-cast on the tv outside that we use our iPhone's to control, a Roku 2 xs in the Main bedroom (also does hulu), Plex Media Centre on the HTPC in the Theatre, Roku 2 xs in the kids lounge room, xbox one in the gym/mancave displaying on 2 tv's. Even if its a week later i can still resume from where i left off. I can start watching a movie in the theatre and then finish watching it in any other room in the house from where i left off. However, there have been quite a few common issues of Plex media server. This software helps you to share videos with your family. The application allows you to play TV shows, movies, personal videos, and many more.

Now i use Plex Home Theatre in conjuction with WMC on the HTPC (Intel NUC) which also serves tv to the xbox 360 media centre extender. Plex is a media server software tool that enables you to take care of the large size of media collections. Until about 4 months ago i was using plex to stream to devices around the house (2x roku 2's, atv3, iphones/ipads and a chrome cast) but was still using MediaPortal for the HTPC in our theatre as it has TV built into it. Like most of you I'm sure, i also have used just about every set up out there for media playback/ HTPC software.(much to the discontent of the missus) Frodo, who was also one of the original founders of XBMC) in February 2004. Been Using Plex for about a 2 years now and cant see me changing. MediaPortal is free and open-source software media center written for Microsoft Windows that is initially based on forked XBMC source code by Erwin Beckers (a.k.a.
