Hate to ask, but do you have Plex Media Server running on your Mac?

baa · November 9, 2013, 6:50pm

PlexConnect is doing fine. You need a PMS / Plex Media Server in your network for Library/Channels to show up.

What and where is PMS Plex Media Server, can you help me please

institute11 · November 9, 2013, 7:17pm

Plexconnect is a client for Plex Media Server (PMS). Download PMS from the Plex web site. You then will need to set up library sections in PMS that point to the media (movies, tv shows, etc) stored on your computer. PMS will then allow you to access those media files via a Plex client like Plexconnect. There are clients for MacOS, iOS, Windows, etc, as well. There are also Plex Channels that allow you to access media files stored on the Internet. You install those from the Channel Directory in PMS.

Here is a link to the PMS downloads.
