I will not dwell on this part, since there are many tutorials on the internet, we will only comment on the cumbersome steps.

  1. Download from here the latest version of plex for our OS

    //Ten en cuenta  que esta es la versión de 64 bits
    http://plex.r.worldssl.net/plex-media-server/0.9.7.28.33-f80a4a2/plexmediaserver_0.9.7.28.33-f80a4a2_amd64.deb
    //32 bits
    http://plex.r.worldssl.net/plex-media-server/0.9.7.28.33-f80a4a2/plexmediaserver_0.9.7.28.33-f80a4a2_i386.deb
    
    //recomiendo sustituid esta ruta por la que haya en la web oficial para tener la última versión
    //Ahora instalamos con
    sudo dpkg -i plexmediaserver...[resto nombre fichero]
  2. Create an account on myPlex

  3. Access
