Plex Media Center or Server? Help!!

[sumair007]

hey guys wassup? Anyone here using Plex Media Center or Server?? M downloading it right now but I have no idea how to begin.

What I need is a simple software that can stream all my media to my Android phone (using the Plex app), but I dont know what should I download first? Will the Media Center do the job for me? If anyone of u has setup Plex to stream media to his phone, please help me out! Like how to set it up and other stuff. Btw m using Windows 7.

Q-Loud Media is the one you should be looking for. (ignore the free version)

Leave all the others. I wont explain it to you, but they are useless. Even Skifta is problematic.

Download the .apk from Mobilism for your Phone.
Download the Server for your PC from HERE.

hey thanks a ton, will try this out for sure. Though i've finally configured the Plex Media Server, now m gonna try it on my phone to see if it works!!

btw off topic can u please tell me should I download the AirSync app by Double Twist?? I mean I dont want to copy my entire music on my microSD card, so I was hoping this app could do the job for me!

^ The problem is, I have tried three apps for this thing and concluded the QLoud Media to be MUCH MUCH better than any other app. You wont understand it just by words unless you try 'em all. Every other app has its limitations with a couple of file formats.

While i liked Skifta for its ability to play the media (movie only however) files in my Default Video Player of Android, i hated the fact that it had problems playing a couple of fileformats, including .mkv.

Anyway ... for a start, try anything you like. But i was simply sharing with The Best option available for this job

About the AirSync App ... never tried it so cant tell. However check a Video of it over YouTube, or via Android Market. Read its description and you'll know.
