hey Patan77 I'm an unRAID noobee and after you install and add Plex can you access Plex from a smart tv on your network with the Plex app from the tv? I just want to use my server for my home theatre and don't wish to use another (kodi) box or any other devices just my tv and server.

yes that works if your smart TV have a plex app or  have a good web browser. Unfortunately my TV  have a really bad "smart TV " functionality (Panasonic VIERA VT60 50" - plasma).

Here is a list of some supported plex smart tv: https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/204080173-Which-Smart-TV-models-are-supported-

PS. after the installing plex on your unraid server, from your server computer you have to go to: http://localhost:32400/web  or http://127.0.0.1:32400/web and sign in to your plex account. I did not mention that in the instruction that I link to in my first post.

Great I'll hopefully get mine built this week and give it a try. Thanks for your help
