I want to get rid of my own on-premise Plex Server, put it in the cloud, let my friends access my content and also upload theirs so we can share without depending on a single server to handle the request, with the ability to autoscale and share storage. Lastly, ideally I will want to have different client access different OR shared media, to reduce storage and processing time. I will need to use autoscale capabilities of Azure so a new instance will be served by demand. Thing is, how can I use Azure Media Service and make Plex aware of that content ? This almost put me in an state where I were going to drop the idea.īut just in time, I read about Azure Media Service, which looks promising for the task. It barely supported 3 simultaneos clients without stuttering. When I used a 1080p that needed transcoding, CPU usage went to the roof. Device-Friendly Stream the good stuff from your favorite devices including Apple, Android, Smart TVs, and more. Instant start time plus 10 simultaneous clients in a 2 core Virtual Machine. Choose from over 50,000 free on-demand titles plus over 300 channels of instant Live TV. This worked beautifully for 480p content, which needed no transcoding. My first try was creating a Virtual Machine on Azure, put some content on it and run a Plex Server. The idea is so I can be able to create a Media Server, upload my media content and stream to my Media Center (in my case I tried apple tv with plex connect, iphone plex app and plex web app) using Plex Media Center. I want to create a Plex Media Server as a Service.
