Hi all,I went to the app list page but there's no mention of Plex!Does the app/add_on still exist?Thanks :)

You are saying DLNA was enabled in the Plex server settings, and you were using a DLNA client in the BD home theater? If you are using a SMART TV plex client, here's something else that might be happening: plex 1.1.3 wrote: IMPORTANT: With the security changes in version 1.1.0, if your Plex Media Server is signed in to a plex.tv account, then all of the apps you use must also be signed-in. If you use older apps that cannot authenticate (e.g. LG's MediaLink or SmartShare apps), you can add the IP address of the device to the following advanced preference: Settings > Server > Network > List of IP addresses and networks that are allowed without auth. (We strongly encourage apps to be signed in for improved security and enhanced functionality.)

You download it from https://www.plex.tv/downloads/ If you select NAS->Netgear and click on "download" it gives three choices (all OS 6) - x86, general arm and RN2xx.

Yes you have to get it from that page as StephenB mentioned. It was updated more regularly at that page anyway than it was on our Apps server.

I have an RN202 running OS 6.5.1 and just installed the Plex application after downloading it from the Plex site. I created a movie library and all of the movies along with the metadata is visible in the Plex app. When I do to watch it on my LG TV (which has aUSB dongle to connect it to my network), it shows the ReadyNAS RN202 but when I select it it says there are no files to show. I know this is a not a problem with the TV because if I fire up the Plex app on my Mac (which points to a different library) the movies show up onj the TV and play without issue. Also, I had previously installed Plex when it appeared in the ReadyNAS app list and it worked fine but had to reformat the ReadyNAS after that and now reinstalled the Plex app. Anyone else having this issue? Any thoughts why the files don't appear using the Plex app on the ReadyNAS? Regards, David

How is your LG TV connecting to your NAS, using a Plex client or something else? Do you have ReadyDLNA enabled?
