Hi there. I’m new to Plex, and would like to know if there is a way to access my own Plex Media Library, as well as the Library that my friend had shared with me previously? Once I created my own account and library, I had to sign out of his. Can I switch between Libraries?

The final verdict seems to be this, which you all likely know, but I was a bit naive to…instead of enabling UPnP, I was able to do a Port Forwarding rule within my router itself using the address and port number from within my Plex settings, and so far it seems to be working well. I thank you guys …

You have to configure your remote access for your server. If you have already viewed your friends server from your house that means he has already done that
