Well I installed the Plex PBI and it's not working for me. Now I may have it configured incorrectly but I haven't really seen any configuration instructions. I was able to get it installed and it scanned all my movies without incident (it displays the movie covers) and it looks fine via the WebGUI.
I open Windows Media Player and my Plex server is listed. :) Then I go to look for the movies and there is no media content. :( And I notice the following messages in the footer of FreeNAS:
This is very repeatable.
I went and removed Plex plugin (my only plugin) and rebooted, reinstalled Plex, had the same exact results three times.
I know I have some of the configuration correct otherwise I wouldn't be seeing my movies pop up during the scan Plex does.
Questions I have:
Q: Do I need to create a Plex account to use this? I currently do not have an account and left that part alone.
Q: Is there something special in the Plex setup to allow my local network (192.168.1.x) to access the content?
All I can think of is I am not configuring something.
Of course I'm running FreeNAS 9.1.1-RELEASE and the plugin came from the GUI. My signature has my system specs which shouldn't be an issue.
