I’m going to assume that the reader is familiar with Linux install, setup, and use so I’m not going into extensive detail in these steps. Not only do I have a powerful playback appliance for Plex but I also have a computer where I can use a browser or any other application where I would want the computer displayed on a TV. So I went through the steps to install PMP on an Ubuntu installation.

Running the embedded version of Plex Media Player requires several compromises when a better experience can be obtained by using a full OS install.
