No more will you need to connect wires between your computer and your home theater set powered by Kodi in order to watch media that’s on your PC.
From now on you can simply install Plex which is one of the best software in that field and get access to your media directly from Kodi itself.
For those unfamiliar with it, Plex is a media server software that lets you stream media – i.e movies, music, photos, etc – across a wide selection of capable devices thus you can enjoy it wherever you go.
To use Plex you simply install it on a specific device, where the media you want to share across devices exists, then through a user friendly interface you can choose which media you want share and Plex will make it available for streaming.
Now, all that’s left is to connect to your Plex server from another device (Plex will guide you through it once you sign up) and start streaming.
The user interface of Plex add-on for Kodi remains similar to the one you would find on other Plex clients thus making it easier to navigate once you’re familiar with Plex itself – which is quite simple and intuitive on its own.
