Fire TV: Use Plex Media Server - Here's how

With Plex, you can stream videos from anywhere on the Amazon Fire TV. In this practical tip, we will show you exactly how this works.

Use Plex Media Server on Fire TV - so it'll work

1. Open the Amazon app store on your Fire TV and look for "Plex" there.
2. Install the free Plex server on your Fire TV and wait for the installation to complete.
3. The first time after installation, the app searches for available servers on the network.
4. For example, if PCs or laptops are on the same network, videos and media content are loaded automatically.
5. The imported content will then be shown to you after a successful scan.
6. Media content with the format MP4 and MP3 can be played.
7. With other formats there is an automatic conversion in the background.
