You know XBMC is more than just a media center for your digital content, right?

Also, Plex is awful. The need to have a computer running for it to work is obnoxious.

Apple Time Capsule connected to Jailbroken AppleTV via AFP for the win.

Try updating your ATV’s software to the latest version.

I have, waiting for the reply. Otherwise, thank you for pointing me in the direction

It’ll show my library, but once I click a file I get the unavailable message :/ All that work for nothing

Hmm. You’ve installed Plex Media Server and you’ve changed the DNS on the ATV to point to the Plex Media Server and you’ve edited the Settings.cfg in Plex Connect and PlexConnect is running on the same computer as the Plex Media Server and it’s still not working? Then you’ll have to ask for assistance in the Plex forum.

Did you apply the self-signed certification hack? That’s required now. The update that Apple pushed that disabled the old PlexConnect was a silent update. They switched from http to https, hence the need for the self-signed certificate.

Also, I believe you need to have at least version 5.1 or 5.2 installed on the ATV2/3.

Nope. I *just* downloaded PlexConnect and it still asked me to update. Though trailers wont work.

I believe the PlexConnect devs added a block to prevent further updates from Apple that could disable PlexConnect.

Actually there is. It’s a little tricky but not overly so.

Luckily mine doesnt have that block yet (it would be nice if plexconnect blocked the update) but the trailers app tells me it’s unavailable…
