Installed plex connect - still get Trailers

Dev Community Apps & Creations

HI,

I think I’ve installed the plex connect on my mac, fixed the IP address and can get it running in terminal. Where I had some issues was the certificate on the ATV 2 I’ve got which would get the error 109 while trying to add the apple.trailers.com/trailers.cer. With some searching, I got the certificate installed using my Plex server IP and port, and then when I look at my plex connect terminal window, it says:
00:30:48 WebServer: serving *.cer: /trailers.cer

So it appears to be working? However, when I click on trailers on the ATV, Apple’s trailers still show up and there is no plex??
I have 6.2.1 firmware on the ATV. If anyone can tell me where I might be going wrong, that would be great! THanks

You also need to change the DNS in the ATV2 to point to the IP of your Mac.

Try to use the IP/trailers.cer method for example I use this string to upload my cert:

192.168.2.10/trailers.cer

(no http prefix required when upload the cert)

Also unless you see the cert installed like shown in this video its not installed on the aTV properly:

Also it will says trailers.apple.com instead of www.icloud.com when hijacking the trailers app & uploading the cert onto the aTV.

Thanks for the help - What you mentioned was more or less what I’d already known, but hadn’t got completely right.
WHile setting up the static IP of the PMS machine, I was a number out on the DNS setting on the ATV. All good now Thanks!
