how to update plex media server
-
-
That is the latest version available for OMV 2.x.
-
how do I install?
-
wait a few days and you'll find the update into update manager. You should already have the latest version avaible since I have it.
-
So do I understand right, that updating via plexserver is not recommended - better wait and upgrade in OMV's update manager?
What happens if I upgrade it within the plexsserver? -
The ability to update Plex Media Server from within Plex itself was removed long ago.
-
So how can I update Plex when I want to stay with OMV 2 for a longer time? I presently don't want to upgrade to OMV 3 because I don't have so much time for it.

The currently available debian wheezy OMV 2.x compatible Plex Media Server package is v1.75.4035.
@yakumo, the individual who has been providing these packages ceased providing any PlexPass packages, so there are none available more recent than v1.75.4035.
If you have a PlexPass, then you have access to more recent Ubuntu Linux packages and you can convert these yourself for use on OMV 2.x using instructions @yakumo provided somewhere in his Plex.tv forum thread:
https://forums.plex.tv/discuss…edia-server-for-debian/p1
Similar instructions are also available here:
Convert Ubuntu PlexPass version to Debian Wheezy for OMV 2.x
Make sure you have a copy of your currently working Plex package so that you can downgrade back in case your converted package does not work.
I used to convert the Ubuntu packages myself for my own use when @yakumo got behind schedule in providing them to us, but since I do not have a PlexPass myself, I can not offer any more recent packages.
So, in summary, either wait for for Plex to release an updated publicly accessible Plex package and hope that @yakumo or someone else converts it for use on OMV 2.x, or convert it yourself.

Thanks.... I think it is easier to go to OMV 3....

hmm...

hey, I use OMV 3 and the plexmediaserver shows me an update (1.8.1).
Even in OMV GUI it shows an update for Plex. Can I upgrade without any problems? -
Can I upgrade without any problems?
Usually you can but no one can guarantee that. Make a backup of your system if you are worried.
