Help Plex app?

funkylogik

share the love peeps ;)
Does it work for free to cast streaming apps from my phone to my Android TV stick or do I have to pay?
If free, how?
Cheers

You install the Plex Media server onto you normal computer. Once installed, you configure it to point to any media on the machine. Then once you have the app, it will stream that content as long as it can find your server and while playing the content you can chromecast it. This also works for other plex servers that have been shared with you.
 
Cheers mate but it's an Android 4.2 tv stick I wanna use.
Plus, I need to use Bluetooth (using my phones hotspot as home Internet)
Possible?
Cheers

I have no idea about the plug-ins, you have to see what's up in your jurisdiction.

Sounds like work when you can just bookmark the website, but it's been over a year since I played with Kodi so don't listen to me really closely on that.

I don't get their American site videos because AJ uses the Brightcove player - with user tracking. I don't know what's up with that, so I block it. Plus - they filter feeds based on your country, so you and I may not be seeing the same AJ. YMMV.
 
True mate, true :thumbsupdroid:
I never knew they had a website tbh and I don't know much about the plugins/add ons or whatever but they seem to be zip files you install.
I was just skimming over it lastnight tbh and some seem to offer free movies/tv streaming that I "think" should be payed for but idk. I'll read more onto it when I get a chance.
Cheers mate
