As the title says.. when i had the PMS on my mac and i changed the IP on ATV2 (unhacked) etc it was working..

i decided to put my Plex media server and files on readynas.. and accordingly i changed the Ip on atv2 with the ip of the readynas..

 

but it wont connect.. i am just unfamilliar with how to put the plex connect folder and edit the py file on readynas 516..

Are you running the plexconnect python script on the Ready NAS?

Can you post all the information as per the pinned Read Before Posting thread (http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/69410-read-before-posting/), as this helps people assist you as it contains log files, config settings etc.

I take it that your Readynas runs its own DNS server

Either you need to disable this (If its possible) or you need to create your own DNS forwarders for trailers.apple.com and atv.plexconnect.
