Nvidia shield plex server network drive files?

I bought a Nvidia shield Pro. I was previously using my desktop as a plex server. I have a NAS that has all the movies on it.

Can the Nvidia shield Pro act as a plex server with files that are on a NAS or does it expect a storage device attached to the USB? I seem to be having difficulty here. I can get video to play on the Nvidia shield from the NAS. But I seem to be having trouble acting as a server using the nvidia shield with NAS.

That’s a pretty common setup/use case with the shield as a server. You can check out the „Connecting to a Network location (Smb)“ section of the related support article:

^^^ Thanks I was able to figure it out after some tinkering. For some reason I had to sign out of plex and then back in. Not just on the server side but also on the client side. After that everything worked as expected
