Anyone use Plex media server ? Need some help

[Darkst4r]

I just started using Plex medi server and although its doing exactly what I want, theres something thats bugging me.

When I access my video files through my Sony Bravia TV, Plex provides WAAAAAY too many search filters to get to my media.

I only really need the folder option and not A-Z, numbers, Genres, Categories, Previously watched, recently added, date order blah blah blah.

Im all for simplicity, so is there any way of removing these filters ?

Thanks in advance.

I ended up getting rid of it. I have no idea why they put such a ridiculous amount of filters in there as standard.
Who ever needs to browse films by actor, director or decade?!

Anyway I got Universal Media Server instead and it's brilliant. No browser based configuration, bloatware or subscription fees for things I'll never use, and best of all its free.

I did try just using Windows 7 as a DLNA server but I had a nightmare trying to import Mkv files into the Windows media player library so gave up.

Whatever the problem is UMS is a much solution for me. Working flawlessly and no messy menus.
It's my first time configuring a wireless media center and I have to say I love modern technology!
I hadn't realised how far things like this had come.

Now all I need is an android app that can turn my Pc off wirelessly when I've finished streaming content from it.
