I have just installed PlexConnect and am delighted about the features and finally being able to say goodbye to Itunes!
Just one question, I have more than one Atv on the same network all connected to the same media server. Can I run PC on more than one Atv all streaming from the same server?
Yes, just set the DNS of the 2 ATVs up the same way and you will be able to use both.
I just set up the second Atv with the trailers.cer and then changed the DNS to the same Atv DNS as the first.
Original Atv works fine but Trailers not working on 2nd Atv,
Are the trailers.pem and trailers.cer now linked just to one Atv?
Did you install the certificate to the second one?
Yes I did
Did you use the same trailers.cer or did you create a new one?
you would have to use the same one across all devices as the trailers.pem needs to match the trailers.cer
Sorry, just noticed you mentioned that.

Ahh! I created a new trailers.cer.
As I deleted the old one, I guess i will need to start all over again and reinstall everything.
If you still have the trailers.pem and trailers.cer from the 2nd create, you can just use that .cer on the 1st ATV(delete the existing profile/certificate) and the move the .pem to your location as per the settings.cfg

Ok, great. How do I delete the certificate on the 1st Atv?
deleted due to repetition
Remove it by reconnecting the ATV to your computer and going into your configuration app and clicking on the remove button next to the profile you had created previously.
Thanks but I can't see the remove button on the Apple Configuator. Should I just go ahead and reinstall the new .cer and assume it will override the old.cer?
Can you see the profile in the window when you select the connected ATV?
No, under the "Supervise" tab it shows "Devices (0)". Although I know it is connected because it showed the same when I installed the .cer originally.
And to answer your question, I am not sure. There was a situation where someone had 6 or seven profiles installed, unintentionally, and things did not work until he deleted everything and started from scratch
I used the iPhone configuration app so I am not sure how the apple configurator works. I have read that you need to be on the same computer that you created the profile to be able to supervise it. Anyone else know how to do this?
I am going to answer my own question.
So I went ahead and installed the new .cer on the old machine. All is now working fine.
I then noticed a new folder called Settings/General/Profiles on the ATv menu.
In that folder were both certificates (old and new). I clicked on the old one and got an option to remove it, which I did.
Problem solved!
Thanks to all posters who helped me get to this point.
Glad it’s working for you.
Good to know that we can delete profiles from within the ATV interface. For future reference it is located under settings:
Settings > General > Profiles > named profile > Remove Profile
The Profiles menu item is at the bottom of the General list.
