Configuring Your Server
Configuring your Beast Plex server is essential for getting the most out of the platform. This guide will walk you through the process of setting up your new server, from installation to configuration.
First and foremost, you’ll need to decide what type of Beast Plex server you want to build. There are two main types: a “headless” server, which doesn’t require a computer or monitor to run; and a “full-featured” server, which includes both a computer and monitor. If you only plan on streaming media from your Plex library, a headless server is the best option. However, if you want to make use of Plex features like adding media sources or managing your library remotely, a full-featured server is required.
Once you’ve made your decision, download and install the appropriate version of the Beast Plex software. You can find downloads for both headless and full-featured servers on the Beast Plex website. The installer will walk you through setting up your user accounts and configuring basic settings like time zone and network addresses.

Adding Media Files and Streaming Sources
Adding Media Files and Streaming Sources
When it comes to streaming your media, you can either rely on services like Plex or build your own beast Plex server. Here are a few tips for adding media files and streaming sources to your Plex server.
Media Files
You can add media files to your Plex server by using the Media Library tool in Plex’s interface or by using the Media Manager extension for various web browsers. You can also drag and drop media files from your computer’s hard drive onto the Plex Media Server.
Streaming Sources
To stream media from external sources, you’ll need to configure your Plex server to use those sources. You can do this by following these steps:
1) Open the Settings page in Plex’s interface.
2) Underneath the General heading, locate the Sources section and click on it.
3) In the Sources section, you’ll see a list of all your connected devices (e.g., local media storage, network shares, etc.). Click on the add button next to the device that you want to use as a streaming source.
4) In the Add Streaming Source window that pops up, give your streaming source a name (
Customizing Your Server
If you’re looking to make your own Beast Plex server, there are a few key components that you’ll need. The first is a Beast Plex client, which can be found for free on the App Store or Google Play store. You’ll also need a Beast Plex server, which can be purchased online or at some brick and mortar stores.
Once you’ve got all of the necessary components, it’s time to customize your server! You can configure it to match your personal preferences and needs. For example, if you want more storage space, you can add an additional drive to your Beast Plex server. Or, if you want to stream media from multiple devices simultaneously, you can install a dual-core processor. There’s no limit to what you can do with your custom Beast Plex server!
