Hi,

I'm having troubles with PlexConnect, it can't see my PMS running on my iMac.

Here is my template:

Your ATV model (2 or 3) and firmware version (found under the ATV settings > general > about > Apple TV software): ATV3, 6.1 firmware

  • The DNS server set on the ATV (found under the ATV settings > general > network > DNS): 192.168.1.2

    • The local IP address of the device that PlexConnect is installed on: Same as before, 192.168.1.2

    • The device and operating system (including version number) that PlexConnect is installed on: iMac, OS X 10.9.2

    • The device and operating system (including version number) that the Plex media server (PMS) is installed on: Same as before, OS X 10.9.2

    • The Plex media server (PMS) version number you are running (do not put 'latest'): 0.9.9.7

    • The local IP address of the device that the Plex media server (PMS) is installed on: 192.168.1.2

    • The PlexConnect version number. If using Github source then a time and date of download (look at the creation date of the folder) and if you are using any non-standard setup e.g. Plexify or a fork.: Dowloaded today, 04/10/14

      • The contents of your 'Settings.cfg' file (this is created at first clean shutdown of PlexConnect:

      • PlexConnect]
        enable_plexgdm = True
        ip_pms = 192.168.178.10
        port_pms = 32400
        enable_dnsserver = True
        port_dnsserver = 53
        ip_dnsmaster = 8.8.8.8
        prevent_atv_update = True
        enable_plexconnect_autodetect = True
        ip_plexconnect = 0.0.0.0
        hosttointercept = trailers.apple.com
        port_webserver = 80
        enable_webserver_ssl = True
        port_ssl = 443
        certfile = ./assets/certificates/trailers.pem
        loglevel = Normal
        logpath =  .

      • A detailed description of the issue (the clearer you can make this the better): PlexConnect doesn't see my PMS. Wich is running, because other devices (iPad) can see it...

      • Ensure you post your 'PlexConnect.log' file to pastebin and post the link:

    • Thanks in advance for your help!

How is your network setup from your mac to your router and also router to your atv? Do you have multiple routers? Is there any firewalls or antivirus software located on your mac? Looking at your log it looks like plexconnect cannot detect pms. You might be able to hard code your pms ip by using this (if im wrong please feel free to let me know):


PlexConnect]

enable_plexgdm = False

ip_pms = 192.168.1.2

port_pms = 32400

enable_dnsserver = True

port_dnsserver = 53

ip_dnsmaster = 8.8.8.8

prevent_atv_update = True

enable_plexconnect_autodetect = True

ip_plexconnect = 0.0.0.0

hosttointercept = trailers.apple.com

port_webserver = 80

enable_webserver_ssl = True

port_ssl = 443

certfile = ./assets/certificates/trailers.pem

loglevel = Normal

logpath = .

Solved!!!!

Thank you so much, wahlman.j!

My network worked fine, (both ATV and iMAc were connected to the same switch), I have an firewall PWS trafic was opened...and changing settings.cfg did the trick.

Deeply grateful for your help, again :)

Just wanted to add that wahlman.j you are a genius and this topic helped me. I opened the Settings.cfg in TextEdit on my Mac, changed ip_pms to my server's IP and BOOM! It appeared on my apple TV. It was driving me nuts. Many thanks.
