nicholasvmoore/docker-plex repository overview

⁠Plex Media Server Docker Container

⁠Plex Configuration

You will need to modify the auto-generated config file to allow connections from your local IP range. This can be done by modifying the file: your_config_location/Library/Application/Plex Media Server/Preferences.xml and adding allowedNetworks="192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0" as a parameter in the section.

Browse to: http://ipaddress:32400/web to run through the setup wizard.

⁠Android Clients

If you wish to connect to the plex using an android client. You can go into the settings of your client and configure a manual connection for the IP address of your docker host. In the future I may be able to get avahi working but this works for now.
