Linux Media Centre Queries

Few Questions for a Newb
Hi all, i'm desperately trying to remove the need of windows for my plex box as its a waste of resource in my opinion...

I would like to install a barebones linux system and then add the media server and the client.

Does the following work at the moment with the current state of the Linux Plex Media Centre.

~Airplay
~Some sort of way to get the cover art (IMDB Details, TV Show Details) - using Media Browser in the background on windows at the moment.
~All the on demand plugins (Iplayer, 4OD, etc...)


Also assuming that we are on linux system having the sky go plugin is a no no?

Thanks in advance and i have to say well done to all that are working on the Client for linux...

Thanks

Jonathan

Not sure about the Airplay (I think thats handled completely through IOS / AppleTV, and plex is a 3rd party, so it should work, but I dont have either of those devices), or the on demand plugins. Some plugins definitely work, like youtube, but anything requiring silverlight (Netflix, for example) currently doesnt.



As far as cover art, Plex should get that naturally, without any help, you probably dont even need MediaBrowser to get the details for you, plex will download from IMDB or TheTvDB or TVRage to get cover art, banners, posters, etc. This definitely works on a linux server.
