Stupid question, but I assume I need to install Python on my Synology NAS?

Why on the screen it says take a note of the DNS number and then it never comes into play!!? DNS shows 100, and then they change it to 69. So how did it come into play?

I am totally confused and lost when it comes to static ip. I never had static IP and ATV worked just fine, now it’s a mess!
Here is where I get lost… at what point does the static IP comes into play? Does the PlexConnect-master generates it’s own IP? In other words is ATV and PlexConnect 2 different IPs? If so which IP i’m adding into the ATV in manual settings?
I set my ATV static to x.x.x.150 but PlexConnect Server shows as x.x.x.3 neither works! Which DNS is it? What PlexConnect generates as IP or what it shows as DNS?

In reply to Gerry Rhiner. Never mind, all I had to do was to wait for plex and python to replicate

Great article, even for the new to media servers crowd. I got the ATV2 showing the plex app and all my movies (…My Videos) show up and play fine, however none of my TV shows (…My VideosTV Shows) display. The directory strucure without thumbnails is there but not TV Shows themselves.

In reply to kamil. SInce you use your pc as the dns host you will not be able to do any dns lookups (ie look up youtubes ip address) without the computer on. You will need the app running or you change back the dns on the apple tv temporarily and let it resolve the ip for youtube.

As for March 2015 everything from the guide above still works. I’m using the connection with my PC and Trailers app and it works great, but there’s one issue… After all that hack I can’t connect with youtube, movies, music and other apps without PlexConnect running on my computer. All apps on apple TV now depend on my PC… Any good ideas how to deal with it?

You said to make a note of the DNS number while it’s on automatic, before changing it because we’ll need to make a change to the plex connect settings later, but there nothing else mentioning what to do with it?
