This image allows you to configure a Plex Media Server easily thanks to Docker.
First, you have to mount your USB drive.
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdrive
This will start Plex using your mounted drive
docker run -d --restart=always --name plex -v /mnt/usbdrive:/media --net=host jaymoulin/plex
Go to http://your_machine_ip:32400/manage to configure it
You can change the Plex Library directory by plugin your local folder to /root/Library folder
Example :
docker run -d --restart=always --name plex -v /mnt/usbdrive:/media --net=host -v /mnt/usbdrive:/root/Library jaymoulin/plex
If you don't have Docker installed yet, you can do it easily in one line using this command
curl -sSL "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/jaymoulin/e749a189511cd965f45919f2f99e45f3/raw/0e650b38fde684c4ac534b254099d6d5543375f1/ARM%2520(Raspberry%2520PI)%2520Docker%2520Install" | sudo sh && sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
Plex for Raspberry PI cannot read some video file format like AVI, WMV or OGM, either due to codec or due to RPI lack of power. You can convert them to make them compatible by using my docker image jaymoulin/rpi-plex-video-converter : https://github.com/jaymoulin/docker-rpi-plex-video-converter
