- StephenBGuru - Experienced UserPlex has a user-generated compatibility list that you might want to check: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... =314388488
The download you want is here: https://plex.tv/downloads If you are running stock OS4, its the "OS4" button on the left.
You install by selecting "add ons" on the frontview web page, and then "add new". - Gambit1AspirantIt is the addon folder that is my problem, trying too use a IPTV addon..
- StephenBGuru - Experienced UserIf you are using the default "data" volume name, then it is \\nasname\data\.apps\plexmediaserver
You need to use NAS admin credentials to see it with Windows file sharing (and .apps is a hidden folder, so if you want to browse it you need to set the windows folder option to see hidden files). You can of course also see it with ssh.
If you are changing config files, make sure you stay with the linux newline convention. Notepad++ is one windows text editor that lets you save linux-compatible files. - mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredIs this on your Ultra 4?
