I currently have Plex running on my laptop, with output to our Roku. Currently we just use it to stream channels but I'd like to start ripping DVDs we buy for our daughter. Edit: It takes a pretty powerful computer to serve media from a ripped source, right? I don't think my laptop can do it but our desktop computer upstairs certainly has the capability. Can I run two Plex servers and have the Roku connect to the laptop for streaming and the desktop for local media? me your dad fucked around with this message at 16:04 on Apr 18, 2014 |

FCKGW posted:If you rip the DVDs into a format that Roku can natively play then Plex will DirectPlay it from your laptop with no issues. Cool, thanks for that. My laptop hard drive is fairly meager so I could use a 500gb USB drive I keep downstairs. I don't keep the drive hooked up to the laptop all the time though. Would there be any problems in Plex detecting it if I only hooked it up when needed?
