I’ve been approached a few times by users that are having performance issues when playing back media and typically it seems that the issue(s) lie in the “Player” settings when viewing the server at Plex.tv. So to clarify I’ll be making a page similar to the signup guide but rather a guide to optimize the performance for your connection. UPDATE: Posted! Playback Optimization Have a good one, LightSpeedTaco

There we have indeed, Plex running on my Xbox One. I’m pleased to announce that the server was updated quick as lightning and is now compatible with the new Xbox applications. Enjoy!

To a very special someone, in need of a heart. Congratulations today and get well quickly! You and your families will always be VIP Nobreaks Members. LightSpeedTaco

Other side of the coin is obviously that if you’re a night owl then you might be in some trouble. It depends on if I’m acquiring new data for the server and how intensely I am doing so.

The cumulative amount of work done in the past week has been a massive burden to bear however now that the time comes where I can sleep until whenever from whenever. It eludes me. So here I sit. On my couch. Waiting for the sun to come up. On the plus side, Don’t Drive Here is on (the LA Paz episode) which  was missing from plex I believe due to some schedule conflicting showtime at some point or labor day, etc. Whatever. Point is it’ll be there in the well… Now.. Morning.. Then… You get it. In other news. Big Brother US seasons 1-16 will end up on plex in due time. As you probably noticed. The bachelor started up again and is being follow by the no breaks system. Taco out for the night.
