We are covered.you and I don't have an immediate need to use the Plex solution to watch and stream OTA TV. I am a Plex user, but I'm also an EyeTV user. At least you can add a password to a profile, so that keeps the kids out of the adult profile.Ĭlick to expand.It's a valid question. Just wish there was a way to lock the Android Plex app to a specific profile for restricted accounts similar to the way the Netflix app works. The separate profiles is especially nice with kids in the house. Haven't even considered XBMC/Kodi since then, and recommend Plex to anyone looking to try Kodi. Had everything up and running within a weekend, including on a Nexus 7 tablet. Saw Plex mentioned somewhere and decided to give it a try. Spent several weeks trying to get this working with a Linux server, Android 4.4 media box, WinXP HTPC, and Win7 HTPC. Especially getting the metadata / viewed status / progress synced between clients (the start movie downstairs, pause, continue watching upstairs feature). Getting XBMC running on a single central server with a single media library shared out to multiple 'clients' was a royal pain. This is also why I moved away from XBMC (back before it was called Kodi).
