Plex Media Server (0.9.2.8)

A photo library is not supported via the Plex Media Server the way Video and Audio is.

Instead, photos are either served from other applications via plugins (eg accessing an Aperture or iPhoto Library, or an online Flickr account etc), or in the client you can add network locations to serve images from.

Note however that at this time, PMS for Linux does not yet support plugins - a key limitation documented in the release notes. You would need to run PMS under OSX or Windows for that specific capability until it is enabled in the Linux port.

To add a location to serve photos from in the client, using the OSX client as an example:

- Go to Picture Plugins
- Press "C" to access the configuration Menu
- Select Add Source from the popup menu

Love it, but when will there be a Plex add-on for my NV+ (sparc)?

Unfortunately - never - x86 only

Can I get some assistance on using Plex with 3G? Works fine on my Droid with Gingerbread when I am hooked up on WiFi, but when I am not on WiFi it says it cant find a way to connect the server.

Thanks

Take a look at http://wiki.plexapp.com/index.php/Plex_iOS#Enabling_iOS_from_outside_of_your_home_network

I believe the steps for Plex Media Server on the ReadyNAS are the same for Plex Media Server on Mac (except of course when the steps ask you to do something to a Mac, you do it to the ReadyNAS instead).

Hello to everyone,
I am a complete newbie to using my nas and wonder if my NetGear ReadyNAS Ultra 4 PLUS RNDP400U is compatible with the Plex media server.?
Any advice welcome

Yes, the Ultra 4 Plus is a x86 ReadyNAS so it is compatible
