Hello, I have been wandering the forums trying to find instructions on how to install the Plex Media Server Beta with DVR from scratch. I have tried to adapt the instructions from the pinned guide on how to update plex but so far have failed miserably.
I stood up a new jail, updated all installed apps, added wget and did the following from the post.
Find the FreeBSD link from this link, https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/230212/using-the-special-dvr-beta#latest
copy it and then use wget
tar -xf PlexMediaServer-xxxxxxxxxx-freebsd-amd64.tar.bz2
mv PlexMediaServer-xxxxxxxx/ plexmediaserver
ln -s /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver/"Plex Media Server" /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver/"Plex_Media_Server"
service plexmediaserver start
My issue with that there is no service in my system called plexmediaserver... so nothing will start. I am hoping that someone more knowledgeable can spell this out for me. If I need to follow a different guide to get this set up then follow the update procedure could someone please provide me that link... I have been looking but have not found one.
I very much want to move off using the FreeNAS plugin for Plex (so old and not plex pass) but am a little lost with FreeBSD. I keep typing Linux commands and I think the server is anoyed with me.
MOD EDIT: pointing users to the download post so users can always get the latest Beta
