I currently have an Asustor AS-604T streaming movies to me and people i know, but there is a bottle neck and its the internet connection. I could buy an Asustor nas server and place at some of the homes make the nas download from my main server, but the price and power consumption is higher then if i use a raspberry pi 2 model b.

&nbsp;

I currently use Rasplex clients running from Raspberry pi B and B+ devices and it makes no transcoding since everything can talk together.. therefor i was wondering if there could come an Plex Media Server for Raspberry pi 2 model b which just is used to get data from a main plex media server to stream within a home and maby even support the main server with internet speed from its location.. (Thats just a fancy dream).. mostly it would be nice since theres no need for transcoding.. It would also be a very cheap solution! Not highend, but good enough to content to a few Plex clients within a home..

> I appreciate works on Plex Media Player but it is only one side of the coin. Many people using those small computers not as smart tv boxes but as media servers. At this moment to use my banana pi as plex server i have to download one of the NAS versions and use some voodoo tutorial found on internet to make it work without annoying information about transcoding. My suggestion for features are: packages that can be used on those devices (preferred Debian .deb packages, as most of distribution …
