I then used scp to upload it to my Plex Ubuntu server and followed the simple instructions hereĪfter a reboot it can be seen in the 2nd screenshot above that I have the latest version. To update the Debian package, the easiest way is to click on the Please Install Manually link (see first screenshot above) which will save a deb package locally, in my case onto my Macbook. I got to a postcode validation screen and it wouldn't accept any version of my postcode I supplied. Once that is done you must update your Ubuntu Plex server to the latest version - failure to do so can lead to problems in the DVR installation. Once the metadata is read by MCEBuddy it can be saved in different formats.The first step in Plex integration is to upgrade your Plex account to unlock DVR functionality.If you retain the MPG format as your output format, only HDHR will be able to read the metadata from the file.If you convert from MPG to non MPG format, HDHR will no longer be able to read the metadata from the converted file (MCEBuddy will save the metadata in other file formats also).MCEBuddy supports reading and writing this metadata format. This is a HDHR proprietary format for storing the metadata which is not supported by any other player (Plex etc). HDHR stores and retrieves the metadata only in MPG files.I think you’re confusing two separate concepts: I read on another post that converting to anything other than. Luckily, my wife is tech savvy and can put up with the foibles. I just wanted a set-it-and-forget-it system.
We can live with the mp4 and hunt for the recording. What I’m asking for is maybe a hint as to the best combination of tuner setting and transcode setting on MCB so that I the files end up with the proper title and season info digestible by Plex. Will it keep the metadata? Will Plex like it? It’s big, and both the Amazon and Roku devices buffer when playing it. But… I read on another post that converting to anything other than. And, yes, I followed the Plex naming format as described in their user guide. I have to look through all the recordings to find what I recorded.
What’s goofed up is the metadata because Plex has no idea how to categorize the file. I can do this now by instructing MCB to transcode to mp4 Normal. My goal, and it’s only partly realized, is for the recordings to end up on Plex as TV Shows that I can watch with either a Roku or an Amazon Fire device.
This was originally set this way for the Plex DVR (which I have abandoned). I have two HDHR Extends which are set to transcode to High Quality.
