What's the issue with using your phone logged into your account to authenticate on the TC?
I guess I'll have to try it out again and see what it's like. My main concern is my mom and sisters having a hard time using it. Plex is easy for them and I don't want to make it more difficult because I'm getting fussy about Plex lol.
Well fair, you can install both at the same time. I installed Plex again earlier today and it was wat easier this time.
