This article describes how to install a Plex Media Server on a NB2800 router.

Plex is a freemium server/client-based media platform. It connects metadata to your files and lets you show your media on a huge variety of client devices.

All preparations made are described in this article: How to set up a NB2800 File Server

If you need instructions on how to set up a LXC Container on NB2800 Routers, you can refer to this page: http://wiki.netmodule.com/app-notes/virtualisation.

The first thing you need to do is to install two programs which are needed for the installation to work properly. Enter

apt-get update
apt-get install gnupg2 apt-transport-https

Before the installation of Plex can start, you need to add the repositorys, from where Plex Media Server is loaded, to the system. For this, enter

wget -O - https://dev2day.de/pms/dev2day-pms.gpg.key | apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dev2day.de/pms/ jessie main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pms.list

Now that the system has the source from where it can load the Plex Media Server, you have to update the systems package lists:

apt-get update

Now you can install the Plex Media Server:

apt-get install plexmediaserver

To get access to the Plex Media Server, open your web browser and go to http://IP-address-of-your-container:32400/web .
