Plex is probably best invention after sliced bread..
Its simple enough to install it on basically any appliance or os. Here is the short description of how to install Plex on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install avahi-daemon vi /etc/apt/sources.list
add the repo:
deb http://plex.r.worldssl.net/PlexMediaServer/ubuntu-repo lucid main
You might want to add the apt-keys:
wget http://plexapp.com/plex_pub_key.pub sudo apt-key add plex_pub_key.pub rm plex_pub_key.pub
sudo apt-get update
Install:
sudo apt-get install plexmediaserver
Access Plex through a browser on the computer running PMS
http://localhost:32400/manage/index.html
This greatly helped me! Thanks!
