Plex Media Server

Last January, I set up Plex Media Server for my home media system.

Here is a guide to having it actually start up like a real service in windows so you don't have to login to have it work.

Plex Queue

I just figured out how to use the Plex Queue. Now I don't have to download videos and store them locally.

At http://plex.tv/web/app#!/playlist/queue/help you see
1 - a button you can drag to your bookmark bar. It contains the following javascript

javascript:%20var%20s=document.createElement("script");s.type="text/javascript";s.src="//plex.tv/queue/bookmarklet_payload";var%20h=document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];h.appendChild(s);void(0);

When you click this bookmarklet on a page with a video, it will add it to your plex queue. It does this by connecting through to your plex account and the plex account your plex server is using.

2 - A generated email address after the pattern, queue+[generatedKey]@save.plex.tv. If you email a link to a page that has a video you would like to watch later, just email the url to it.

So far, I have been able to queue from these sites, youtube, gc.lds.org, lds devotionals. Facebook videos that are public do not seem to work.
