yes mate.. works a treat.

1st load and run through the menus is a bit slow whilst it caches the cover art.. but it's a nice plex client and was really simple to set up & configure.

Cool, simple case of image on SD card and done?

yeah that's pretty much it.

Like I mentioned though you have to force it to cache the coverart on 1st boot.

Read this: http://rasplex.com/documentation/faq.html towards the bottom. "Why doees rasplex seem so slow"

Cool. It is for the Brother in Law, will still need to do it for him as the Wifi Dongle set up can be a pain.

Ah, mine is wired directly to the router, not played with wireless on it at all.

One thing.. I needed a usb keyboard plugged in for the 1st boot it has some kind of noddy installer that I couldn't get to work with either my hdmi-cec remote or ios remote.
