Trying to put an ‘On Demand’ link on our website (InsideBoxing.com) so viewers can view our boxing videos. I’d like to pull the videos from the Plex server. Can this be done? Thanks for any help.
No, you cannot link to your Plex server this way. If you’ve already got a web server running, why not just link it directly to the file instead of going through Plex.

My intent was to use Plex media server to make our video content available to the public. We do not have an active web server running but sounds as if that’s what we’ll have to do.
I appreciate your response.
I take it Plex is a personal ‘Take your movies with you’ application?
Plex is designed for residential use and through our Plex clients, it’s not meant to be a file sharing server. If you already have a website you should be able to upload your videos to them and then link to those files from your site itself. You don’t need a dedicated local web server.
