At that time, Plex had 130 apps, the most popular of which were viewers for Apple Movies Trailers, YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, MTV Music Videos, BBC iPlayer, and Vimeo. was founded with Ullman as CEO and Feingold as CTO. In December 2009, the US-based Plex, Inc. The OSXBMC code was kept roughly in sync with the upstream XBMC code. Due to different goals and vision from the XBMC team, they soon forked the code to become Plex, and published it on GitHub. The developers continued collaborating with the Linux-based XBMC project until May 21, 2008. The team released early versions of the port, called OSXBMC, intended for eventual full integration into Mac OS X. They contacted him and offered support and funding, forming a three-person team in January 2008. Around the same time, Cayce Ullman and Scott Olechowski-software executives who had recently sold their previous company to Cisco-were also looking to port XBMC to OS X, and noticed Feingold's progress via XBMC online forums. He ported the media player XBMC (since renamed Kodi) to Mac OS X. Plex began as a freeware hobby project in December 2007 when developer Elan Feingold created a media center application for his Apple Mac.

It was still used on the Media Server browser interface until early August of the same year.

The Plex server is connected to the 2nd one.Plex logo from 2013 to April 27, 2022. I actually have 2 routers chained together, the Uverse one in the basement doing all the routing and a 2nd one on the main floor that acts as a switch but provides wifi to the house. I am just wondering if it is confusing local traffic inside my network for external traffic. Under traffic type it says “Microsoft SSDP Enables discovery of UPnP devices - 9.5 GB” In the Hosts list there are the usual ones Plex uses but the one that uses 9.5 GB is an IP address instead of a website address - something like 2xx.255.255.2xx (I obscured the numbers just in case) but they are definitely weird. On the Usage page, I click “Apps” and highlight “Plex Media Server”, it shows “Incoming External” traffic of 9.6 GB down. Not sure if I can post pictures, so here is what I am seeing in GlassWire: My Plex server is strictly used on my local network so I cannot imagine why it would use up such a large amount.īefore I ask Plex, I thought I would ask here and see if I am reading this correctly. I have monitored my PC for the last month, and it is showing over 9 GB external traffic downloaded by Plex Media Server. I am a new user so any help would be appreciated.
