RH: Install Plex Media Server on Centos 6/Fedora 14
# Edit your /etc/yum.repos.d/plex.repo file, and change it to look like this:
[PlexRepo] name=PlexRepo baseurl=http://plexapp.com/rpmrepo/release/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0
This should auto pull the latest rpm from the official repo.
# yum list available | grep PlexRepo plexmediaserver.x86_64 0.9.6.3.143-4466fb5 PlexRepo
In case you would like to use experimental version ( beta ), please add this to your plex.repo file
[PlexBetaRepo] name=PlexBetaRepo baseurl=http://plexapp.com/rpmrepo/beta/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0
When you would like to enable the pgpcheck option within you repository, set pgpcheck to 1 and import the pub key :
rpm --import http://plexapp.com/plex_pub_key.pub
CommandLine Tricks
Remove a Section from your Library
Sometimes it is needed to remove a section from your Library.
Unfortunately the Plex Media Manager does not allow you to remove a section.
This is how it can be done :
Windows
"c:\Program files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" -l 1: Movies 2: TV Shows 3: TV Shows
"c:\Program files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" -D -c 3 "c:\Program files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" -l 1: Movies 2: TV Shows
OSX
"/Applications/Plex Media Server.app/Contents/MacOS/Plex Media Scannerquot; --list "/Applications/Plex Media Server.app/Contents/MacOS/Plex Media Scannerquot; --del-section -c 3
