I don't care for or need cloud streaming. I would like to set up a media server (Mac mini) attached to a NAS where I can rip my DVD's and then stream to Apple TV and access via the Apple TV apps/menu page.

ago by jjennings234 Media Server to Apple 4k Hi all, I'm new to a lot of this. As before, drag the downloaded app to the Applications folder. Media Server to Apple 4k : r/appletv r/appletv 7 mo. Doing so launches Safari and a download page for the app. Click the + Your Media button, then the Get Plex Media Server button. I've been happy with it but it seems a bit expensive.Īnyone used MrMC? It's more affordable and I don't have to pay monthly subscription for ever.Īny idea if it has trakt integration and how it handles codecs that the official Plex client struggles with like wmv, high end 4k files, etc.? Can it play dvd ISO/VOB files? VLC on the Apple TV allows you to get access to all your files and video streams in their native formats without conversions, directly on the new Apple device and your TV. Plex Media Server is the software that works with macOS to make your media available to the Plex app. I've been using infuse for about 2 months. I will still use Plex server for cross platform compatibility but I need a different client for apple tv and mac. The Plex app struggles with some older codecs like wmv and some audio transcoding issues as well on newer 4k codecs.Īlso, I love using trakt and Plex doesn't always play nice with it. I am looking for Plex client alternative on apple tv. I also have a Synology ds218 running Plex server with plexpass lifetime subscription. I have an apple tv 4k 2021 with homepod stereos for Dolby Atmos sound.
