I guess it’s just the way my brain doesn’t assimilate information well, but I went at it assuming that when I was done I would have a product that would show up in Plex and allow me to use as a browser within the Plex system. Now that I’m done I realize it’s just a single device install that that results in something that looks like a web page, and will need to be repeated on any other device that I want to use it on. Pretty underwhelming, and a s*** ton of work for what I end up with.

Anyway as I said I’m not very good at processing large chunks of information, so if I’m underusing it please let me know how I should properly be doing things.

I am requesting comments.

Edit: okay, I set it up on my wife’s iPad easily using Safari and it seems to work fine. Thank you all, I truly didn’t know what I was doing and I still don’t, but so far so good.

    Now you have a Webserver running on your PC and your wife could open it on her iPad if she would enter the IP of your PC and the correct port of your overseer instance…

    But this isn’t really optimal as the site now only works I’d your PC is on
