I am running windows 7 and need to know ASAP how to change the directory to my plexconnect folder.... PLEASE HELP.
Can someone post the instructions for me...
I figured out how to change the directory. Now, I have another problem. I can get the plex to show movies from the trailer app, but the movies will not play. Also, after I reboot the PC, my apple tv 3 will not work unless PYTHON is running. How do you get python to run after you reboot? Why do I have to activate it each time?Please help!!
Dude, it’s Windows, just double-click the PlexConnect.py file

Yeah i have updated the wiki to reflect this as a much easier option.

This is exactly what I have done. I can get the movie title to show up in the trailers app, but movies will not play. Python does not restart when windows restart. Is there an issue why this happens? Can someone help me out?
hey do mkv's work with Plex connect on ATV3?
Doesn't seem to for me (720 and 1080), but avi's do??
Also, does it transcode avi and mkv or natively decode on ATV3? I'm a noob.
Been using Beamer app for ATV3, and XBMC for ATV2 so far but saw articles of Plex working on ATV3 now so I wanted to give it a try.

It transcodes or remuxes but your PMS will need enough power to do it.
I see, so I'm assuming it transcodes all avi's and remuxes mkv's where it can (I think the ones without DTS track) and transcodes the DTS track ones or something to that effect, is that right?
'Trailers is unavailable. Try again later.' for all mkv's for me
I have a 2011 13" Air shouldn't that be sufficient? Is there some setting I'm missing?
I've been using beamer app, on-the-fly transcoding with drop-in window and its worked well. Advantage to Plex is just having a way to access files without hopping back on the computer right?
And for ATV2, I guess I'll keep using XBMC since it decodes on the box itself.
Just trying to seek clarity is all.
Appreciate everybody's help and the Plex team's efforts!

What firmware are you on?
5.2
also unrelated but does Plex share your movie collection with anybody? seems like it'd be a privacy concern of sorts..
but I am a noob :D

Only on your LAN, unless you add others.
Btw try downloading the latest: https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect
The address was wrong in the blog post (although it has been cloned across to that branch as well).
ATV3 5.2.1
Firewall disabled completely
Entered the IP of the device wich is running PMS as DNS on my ATV, entered the IP of my Router in PlexConnect Settings.
when starting plexconnect, this is what i get
PlexConnect : PlexConnect PlexConnect : Press ENTER to shut down. PlexConnect : *** PlexConnect : IP_self: 192.168.1.100 PlexGDM : *** PlexGDM : looking up Plex Media Server PlexGDM : *** PlexGDM : servers discovered: 1 DNSServer : *** DNSServer : Starting up.

what am i doing wrong?
"WebServer : Failed to connect to port 80 (http): [Errno 10013] Der Zugriff auf einen Socket war aufgrund der Zugriffsrechte des Sockets unzulõssig"
This means you are starting the PlexConnect.py with insufficient rights. Under OSX you need to type "sudo" in Front of it.
sudo ./PlexConnect.py, under Windows you need to run it as administrator!
Hi all,
I get this:
juuroair:PlexConnect-XML_templates juuro$ sudo ./PlexConnect.py Password: PlexConnect : *** PlexConnect : PlexConnect PlexConnect : Press ENTER to shut down. PlexConnect : *** PlexConnect : IP_self: 192.168.0.14 PlexGDM : *** PlexGDM : looking up Plex Media Server PlexGDM : *** PlexGDM : servers discovered: 1 DNSServer : *** DNSServer : Starting up. DNSServer : intercept trailers.apple.com: 192.168.0.14 DNSServer : forward other to higher level DNS: 192.168.0.1 DNSServer : *** WebServer : Failed to connect to port 80 (http): [Errno 48] Address already in use PlexConnect : WebServer not alive. Shutting down. DNSServer : Shutting down.
The Apple TVs DNS is set to 192.168.0.14. In the Settings.py the DNSmaster method returns 192.168.0.1.
What's happening here? What did I miss?
>> WebServer : Failed to connect to port 80 (http): [Errno 48] Address already in use
>> PlexConnect : WebServer not alive. Shutting down.

You have another WebServer running already.Where is our "known issues list?
Thank you! There was an apache already running on port 80. :-)

You have another WebServer running already.

still doesnt explain my insufficient rights problem. but seems like it is a problem with my admin account??
anybody knows what i could change so i get this working?
