You can rename the server, tell the server where to look for various components of your media library, as. Thanks for any suggestions or plain just telling me I can't do what I want. Select your new server, then follow the prompts. If I install Plex to my Firestick, would that work? Is there a way to make the TV app upstairs see the Shield server? Is casting from my phone the only way to watch from my Plex server? I would prefer to stay away from a Plex pass although I am betting someone will suggest that as that may be the way to do what I want. I am guessing that what I want to do is not really supported that way. I reset it and removed the computer connection so now it can't locate any server. The whole idea was to use the basement server as the only server (had on the computer to test and from before owning the Shield). I also ran (currently uninstalled) server on this computer. However, it can't find the Shield server only the computer. I have the latest version of Plex Server as well as media player installed on the Nvidia Shield on the Samsung 75' TV in the basement. Haven't tried with the computer, but what I want to do is use the Plex app on the 55" Samsung upstairs. Now I can get the Shield to play movies and such from my NAS to the basement TV, although it of course requires running Plex player (with the server I guess being configured through it). or higher.I have the latest version of Plex Server as well as media player installed on the Nvidia Shield on the Samsung 75" TV in the basement. You’ll know you’re up to date when the version number reads 1. While it’s unclear why this app wasn’t updating on its own, updating it manually seems to fix this issue. The Plex Media Server app is separate from the standard Plex Android TV app, but still updates through the Play Store. Multiple users noted that the issue seemed to start late last year and persisted for some users until now. The Plex Media Server app was, for some reason, not automatically updating on Shield TV devices, eventually silently breaking the functionality.
Thankfully, the solution turned out to be hiding just beneath the surface.
Logging out, clearing cache, and various other troubleshooting fixes weren’t doing the trick. Reported on Nvidia’s forums as well as the Plex forums, some users had noticed that their servers were breaking with no obvious culprit. Unfortunately, that’s been broken for some users for a while, but a new update apparently fixes the problem.
One of the most useful features of the Android TV-powered Nvidia Shield TV is the ability to use it as a Plex server pretty quickly and easily.
