PLEX


 

Has anyone any experience of Plex and what do you use it for ? ?A bloke talked about it at the last local user group meeting and I couldn't make head nor tail of it apart from the fact he is ripping DVDs and basically got them on a server with access given to his family members.
I looked at it some years ago and was none the wiser back then. I thought initially it was meant to be some sort of catalogue happening. I'm wondering if it has any relevance these days with a lot of stuff being on line anyway though his train of thought seemed to be about the avoidance of free to air tv or anything with adverts running.....that used to be when you made a rush to make a pot or visit the bathroom ?:-)


Hello MacCafe IO people.

Sorry, I've never heard of it.

Thanks for that link, Jude.? Streaming is not something we've yet aspired to but you never know.

I stream from my iPhone via apps to the Apple TV thing on my bedroom TV. ?Think I need to buy a newer one for the smart tv in the lounge room.
But our internet connection where I am is not very good. On old copper wires almost strung gum tree to gum tree :-)
But we manage. Sometimes too much stuttering to be bothered with stuff off the net.?
But if a video library was contained on a spare HD would be useful perhaps.?
The bloke doing the demo had downloaded a whole lot of English tv programs, so he's not just doing movies.?
