Throw away the PlexConnect files and start again!

You should not be changing anything in settings.py any more, it is now done all in settings.cfg.

Please follow the latest guide on the wiki (link in sticky).

If you are still getting an issue please report the correct information and a description of what is happening.

python 3.

PlexConnect is developed on 2.7, and known to run on 2.6 and most probably 2.5.

Please tell me why ? It's not run

Looks good to me... you got to redirect your aTV DNS to the PlexConnect machine.

[DrZeuss]

Please tell me why ? It's not run

As Baa has mentioned PlexConnect is developed to support 2.7 Python (and its known to work with  2.5/2.6). Uninstall Python 3.2.2 and install one of the 2.7.x releases like 2.7.2 from http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.2/

Last screenshot is python 2.7 - and skip 2.5. As far as I know, we lost the compatibility somewhere along the way.

Hello All,

I am currently running Plex Media Server ( PMS ) on CentOS. The service is up and running, and I am able to connect via browser to PMS and check the movies and musics there. I can also do it remotely via a smartphone browser.

The problem is that after assign the computer ip address to the DNS of Apple TV 3rd generation ( ATV ) and click trailer it stays a long time trying to connect and then issue "Trailers is unavailable. Try again later.". 

- PMS Service is started on CentOS

- My computer ip address is: 192.168.0.6

- DNS on ATV is: 192.168.0.6

- PMS can be executed by http://localhost:32400/manage/index.html#

What am I missing here?

Is Plexconnect installed on the same machine?

Whats in the Plexconnect.log file?

whats in the settings.cfg?

Have you read the "read before posting" pinned thread with regards to troubleshooting and reporting an issue?
