FYI:
Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite beta 3 and iOS 8 beta 3 were just released (Juli 7, 2014). However, no new Apple TV 7.0 beta version was published.
This means no changes in Apple TV 7.0 beta software (last dated June 17, 2014).
For more information regarding Apple TV 7.0 beta 1 and PlexConnect see:

Edit:
Update released (Thanks to openDVB for the feedback), I confirm that Plex, PlexConnect and OpenPlex are still working!

Hmm Plex Connect seems to be broken for me since updating ATV to Beta 4, get a raft of errors on plex connect console when trying to access iMovie Theatre. Created new cert but still made no difference.

12

I can confirm, too. iMovie Theatre is broken in ATV 7.0 beta 4 (I've already updated my mentioned post), WJS app and Trailers are still working. Seems that Apple changed the link address...

13

Can you not identify the URL by looking in the plexconnect log and see what URL appears? (Maybe do it when hijacking trailers)

14

I posted the error message on my miApple.me post above. There is no hibt for a new URL. Maybe somebody other like iBaa can find it?

15

You can maybe find the URL by not using a cert on your aTV whatsoever and manually specifying your DNS to your plexconnect host. When you select iMovie theater you should see the URL it is redirecting to in the plexconnect log by selecting iMovie theater over and over. You could also try this:

I checked both options with no success (I couldn't see anything from the Apple TV) . Than I tried to access iMovie Theatre with the standard DNS, meaning the normal one without PlexConnect running, and I couldn't access either.

This could mean that it is just a iMovie Theatre bug in the latest Apple TV 7.0 beta 4. I'll come back when the next beta is released...

17

This is a long shot but you could try the first command in this URL. The curl command as one command line but replace the 5.3 with 7.0 (use it in terminal):

I made a script here based off of it that pulls down the storeFront file and places it in /Applications/PlexConnect/update/OSX/storeFront. You can look thru it and search for it, no guarantee’s.
