PlexConnect won't sign in

@timur_senchenkov This announcement has two consequences:

  1. If you have PlexConnect installed in the ATV3 you can’t login it to plex.tv, therefore you can’t access remote PMS, or use plex pass. But you can use your local PMS (see below)
  2. If you have PlexConnect installed in other platform, you need to install python 2.7.9 or higher (2.7.18 is recommended)

If you opt for option 1. above these are the steps to access a local PMS:

  1. Identify the IP assigned to the ATV3 and parametrize PMS according to Q7 in FAQ’s
  2. SSH to the ATV3 and stop PlexConnect (see Wiki)
  3. Edit Settings.cfg so that enable_plexgdm = False and ip_pms = x.x.x.x (where x.x.x.x is the ip address of the ATV3)
  4. Start PlexConnect
