#Pyplex

##Introduction

This is an implementation of an idea on the Plex forums - that the Raspberry Pi could use a Plex client that had no interface, and was just designed to be operated using an iOS device or similar as a remote. Only the very barest bones functionality is here, but I hope that it is reasonably easy to extend.

##Requirements

sudo apt-get install avahi-daemon
sudo pip install webpy

##How to use

Launch with

python pyplex 3000

and then 'Raspberry Plex' should appear as a player you can choose in your Plex client. Choose your media, and select this as the player to play it on. It should begin playing on your Raspberry Pi!

I must reiterate how bare-bones this is. Once you start playing the media, you either wait for it to finish, or

killall omxplayer.bin
