I can’t figure out how to use Plex on multiple xboxes at
the same time. Signing on to a second Xbox with the same profile causes the first to sign out and Plex loses the connection to the server. If I create a second profile to use Plex, the first profile is no longer set up to use Plex. Is there a way to use multiple xboxes?
Probably can.. I am not in this situation. Worse case ya can create another plex account and share your servers to it... Then sign into the other xbox using your secondary account......
misread. disregard

Isn't it currently available to use for plex pass subscribers/premium at the moment? Can you not just link more than 1 account using same login?
Because Plex for Xbox is still in beta test / Plex Pass mode, it will not run from a non-Plex Pass account. The non-Plex Pass account can't use it on either box. It is also single-profile (account) somewhere. (Read that in other threads)
Well, I created a new plex account and shared my libraries to it. But then when I try to connect the Plex app with the new account, it failed because the new account doesn't have Plex Pass. Unless I did something wrong, I don't think its possible to use more than one xbox at the same time unless you pay for multiple plex pass accounts. At least each XBox can be setup for use but only one can be using Plex.
The whole one-account issue is known. It was stated when it was released to beta. They were focusing on the core video functionality which is why music and photos aren't there yet either.

Didn't see your reply when I posted. I guess this means, only one XBox at a time until its out of Beta. Thanks.
No prob.. I did need to clarify though. Thanks :)
ahh it was misread... yeah I do not have a console so I dont know what the problems are with that setup. Is this going to stay tied to a account with a pass subscription?
I would suspect, after it's been stabilized in Plex Pass-only for a while, it will be available for general purchase just like all other apps are to non Plex Pass members.
