Apple TV1 & Plex thru Dharma
#1
I upgraded my XBMC to 10.0 Dharma, which I believe, should have had Plex.
There were none. How do add Plex?

For info, I am running ATV with XBMC.

no, XBMC shouldn't have plex, where did you hear that?

plex is a fork of XBMC and doesn't work on ATV

Thank you Amet for responding. You know Amet, I have been searching for the reference form a search I did a few weeks back and having some difficulty finding it. If can recall, it seems that it was from a Wiki page.

So, are you saying surely there is no plug-in? I know one requirement for Plex is OS 10.5.

Maybe the better response is:

What is it you're trying to do that you think you need Plex to achieve? Plex is a different application, just like Quake is different to Unreal Tournament - they do similar things, but that's it.

So given that anything you can do with Plex you can probably do with XBMC, what are you actually trying to do?

I am about 140% sure that is the case

Thank you for asking. I got ATV Flash because I wanted XBMC and Boxee, with the hope of having MTV, CNN, ESPN3. How I could add these to XBMC?

Also, I have a 100inches 16:9 screen as well as an AV stereo and projector that convert my Apple TV to 1080p. However, the XBMC screen interface does not fit perfectly...some bleeding at the top and bottom...not much.
what can I do to resolve this?

Can't say I've tried streaming anything other than BBC iPlayer, but try looking at the add-ons. I've not looked myself, but I believe there's a CNN add-on at least.

The CNN plug-in works just fine and can be found in the add-ons screen in XBMC Dharma.

Check this topic for the MTV add-on, I have no idea if it still works.

There is no ESPN3 add-on, and they're probably won't be one.

Thanks for responding. All that I have seen is Fox news, which I have enabled. There is a Jupiter Broadcasting and a CNET podcast but no CNN.

Developers, if you are reading this, can you add CNN, MTV, and ESPN3? Those are no longer available through Boxee. I recently bought the Apple TV1 as well as the Atv Flash for those add-on and was surprised to learn they are not available.

I clicked on the link above; it's no longer available or it's just a bad link. In my add-on, there is no CNN, just CNET Podcast.
