Guide

1. Extract the PlexConnect archive you [downloaded earlier] (https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/archive/master.zip). We recommend extracting the folder, then dragging the extracted folder to "Applications".

2. Generate the SSL Certificates by following the [Mac Certificate Guide] (https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/wiki/Install-Guide-Mac-Certificates).

3. Run PlexConnect by first opening a terminal window (Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal), then type the following:

sudo "/Applications/PlexConnect-master/PlexConnect.py"

Provide your Administrator password to complete PlexConnect startup.

You should now see messages like these in the terminal window: You can now minimize the Terminal window.

4. Follow the [AppleTV configuration guide] (https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/wiki/Install-Guide-AppleTV-Configuration) to complete the installation.
