The APP is free as it with most SMART tvs, I do however prefer the version on my Samsung TV rather than the build for Amazon Fire. My roku is now in the drawer as it was simply too slow cant remember what version it is 2XL I think.Īmazon Fire Stick (~£34.99) Personally think they are too slow and your wifi will be a bottleneck same goes for any other device that is wifi only.Īmazon Fire TV box (~£69.00/£79 for 4k) is my preferred choice, I press the home button, already connected to LAN, then simply go to PLEX app which is normally on my most recent right at the top.

Note: The app will take a minute or two to install and it will show on the FireTV instantly without a need to restart it.Hopefully my response is quite helpful, as I have tried all the above mentioned.

Now, if you are on Mac (which I am) you can download the zip I've attached and:Ĭd /Mac (directory with the files downloaded)ĭownload the 6. Settings -> Applications -> Appstore -> Automatic Updates (set to OFF) Settings -> About -> Network -> make a note of the IP Address of your stick, you will need it Settings -> Developers Options -> ADB debugging (set to ON), Apps from Unknown Sources (set to ON) Settings -> Applications -> Manage Installed Applications -> Plex -> Uninstall (I've also cleared cache and data) Steps for 2nd Gen sticks (for those who have 1st Gen the settings might be under a different menu): Note: You can leave your stick plugged into the TV

I've tested in on my 2nd Gen FireTV 5.7.3-20 but this should also work on 1st Gen sticks. which was the latest version with a nice GUI. Just like many of you I hate the latest 6.4.2 version of Plex on FireTV so I've decided to find a way to downgrade it to 6.
