The apple tv works fine, the remote is borked

And pixmania are **nts when it comes to returns too....... So i dont know whether just to try and buy a replacement.

Anyway, now got 2 jailbroken apple tv's with plex on, but apparently theres plans to give apple tv's an app store, so it would be nice to see plex on there

I'll be buying two (one for me and one for my wife)

Anyone used this on the chromecast yet? I'm going to attempt to set it up on my NAS this weekend.

My seedbox are just about to install it, so I'll be using it for streaming from that soon (hopefully)

I'd say so.

The plex server on my mac pro doesn't seem to connect to the plex network anymore, I'm working on that..... I've done all the port forwarding etc.

However plex on my seedbox works like a dream, I download something and just refresh sections and unless the seeder has done something stupid like rar it up, I can watch it straight away.

I've been thinking about uploading all my media to my seedbox, but I dont want to put it in the directories plex currently watches and I can't find out if I put it in different directories whether plex will pick those up.

Ah-ha I know where to come when I inevitably fuck my installation up

What company is your seedbox with? Seedboxco?

No it's Feral. They are great for me, and as they lost shitloads of customers last year they don't seem to mind me constantly being 150% over allocation. I download quick to OZ as well.

Plex seems to be work in progress for them at the moment https://github.com/feralhosting/feralfilehosting/tree/master/Feral Wiki/Software/wip - plex

I could probably try and install it myself, but I'd rather someone else did it first.

Ah right.

On the seedboxco you install it and then essentially give yourself sharing permissions to that account.
