The plex client is supported on a ton of devices including Windows, Apple, Android, Amazon FireTV, Chromecast, Xbox, PlayStation, Linux and so many more. This is great as you don’t need have multiple copies of the same media across several devices. You can then have multiple clients connect to the same server. In this case we will be using the Raspberry Pi. This means you can have all your movies, music and photos located on the one device, the server. Plex is a client server setup where the client simply streams data from the plex media server. You can also set it up to be accessed outside your local network. This project is for someone who wants to have a media server that can be accessed by anyone within a household.
