Hello all,
I could manage to PlexConnect work and communicate with Apple TV (3rd Gen). But when I enter the Trailers and Movies, I can not see the posters of the movies, and when I try to play I get an error saying "An error occurred loading this content"...
I tried MKV, AVI and MPEG4 files, but the result is the same...
What might be causing this?
Regards
I am using Windows 8.1 for Plex Media Server and Apple TV 3rd Gen 6.2. Both are connected to same router via LAN cable...

And this is the python window...
I can not play movies, music or see photos...
But Plex on my Samsung TV works without any problem... They all are connected with a lan cable to same network...
This is another PlexConnect window...
Remove pms completely and properly:
https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/201941078-Uninstall-Plex-Media-Server
Remove plexconnect properly from your PC and all certs on your PC and on your aTV start fresh DO NOT USE ANYTHING OLD:
https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/wiki/Install-Guide-Windows
DO NOT edit your settings.cfg at all. Also you can load your certs from your PC over your network using a much easier method:
https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/wiki/Install-Guide-Certificate-via-Ethernet
Once complete reboot everything, PC, aTV, network etc.
Oh no... why re-install everything?

I need a log, recorded with loglevel=High from a session, where you actually hit the issue. Please revisit the given link. Everything else is pretty much guessing.

Thank you for your reply... Where is the Log file saved?
Ok I found it. It is attached...
Here is another Log File when "An error occured"...
Ok I found the problem... I changed the settings below in Settings.cfg and it started to work... :)
Well im glad its working for you but still seems to be a underlining issue why its not working by using default settings. If your happy as is then your all set, still seems like something else is causing the issue and this is more of a bandaid to the real issue so I wouldn’t say you found the issue per say but like I said if your happy with your solution as is then more power to you.
Looks to me that the PMS is replying as 127.0.0.1 which means when the ATV tries to find the files to display they don't exist.
So I think its an issue with PMS config and not Plexconnect, using ip_PMS means plexconnect is not aski9ng for what IP to use to connect it is just using the one provided, so as such fixes the issue within Plexconnect, just not the one in PMS (which most likely does not cause any other clients any issues)
