Installing Plex on Ignite TV

Kenkara
I've been around

I just got the ignite TV box and was looking to install plex as it is my primary streaming app. Anyone know how to do that? I didn't see it on the list.

Billow is correct.

While the rogers box, is a streaming app of sorts..  it is its own platform.
Its not ROKU or anything based like that.  It is its own thing.
Even to the point, that Rogers doesnt do most of the development themselves for it.
Rogers is renting the technology from Comcast in the US.   So they need to do most of the development for rogers/rogers adapt what they have already added.

Most smart TVs which you are connecting to, often can add a PLEX client.
As well as plex is castable from a device, if you have a TV you can cast to.

Nope, not gonna happen. Only authorized apps that Roger's deems necessary are installed. No user apps will ever be allowed.

Sorry.

I've been here awhile

Was looking for Plex as well as I recently switched to Rogers.  Looks like I will have to make due with casting or switching to my Roku tv controller to access plex media server.
