Setting up your Plex server is a largely automated process, and getting a stream set up on the other end is usually as simple as downloading the free app for your chosen platform, be it a smart TV, web browser, XBox One, PlayStation, or Apple TV. Or, if you leave your PC on 24/7 you can use that too. Plex can be set up on any hard drive, ideally, a NAS (network-attached storage device), but since I already use a web server to store my media collection I can install Plex on the server. Plex is possibly the most popular media server software out there, as it offers an easy setup and a highly flexible system for managing different types of media libraries.


It will now create a new database in the AppData\Roaming folder which it can access, read and modify, which should greatly improve PS3 media browsing. On the web page choose Scan Folders (this can take some time) Go to traces tab and note down the line TRACE A tiny media library admin interface is available at : (<- IP address will be different as this is obviously mine)Įnter the IP Address, port number and directory that you got in the last step Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\PS3 Media Server\ If you go to the traces tab and you have errors about the database being read / locked, then you have a problem. Given you some rep AB, also any chance we could get this stickied as it is a rather useful thread?Īlso I was having quite a few problems recently with PS3MS taking forever to find directories whilst in the PS3 interface and I decided to look into the problem.
