I've recently bought a new Raspberry Pi which was for me to do some stuff on (Pihole, docker... things etc.)

The Roku in our bedroom died the day after it arrived, and I don't want to replace it since I'm waiting to see whether NVidia are announcing a new Shield as people are expecting. I decided to just throw Rasplex on the pi and use that for a few months.

Unfortunately it hasn't been updated for 2 years and apparently people are struggling with it booting, with it claiming undervoltage even when the power is fine. I had this same issue.

I tried a community fork which was even worse, does anyone know of a decent RPi plex client? I'd rather not go with Kodi + the plugin

  1. Is it the RPi or the Roku which is having trouble booting?

  2. If it is the Roku, this is the wrong place.

  3. However, if it is the RPi, try doing a clean re-installation. Follow the steps here You can use your current SD card and it should work fine. This re-installation should give you the most recent version, and remove any problems you may have. If you encounter any problems, please leave a comment below with @Ntechh.

  • The Roku is dead as a doornail, I'm trying to replace it in the interim with the Pi.

    It boots fine with raspian or any other OS, but rasplex, which apparently is a common issue.

    I have repeatedly installed all sorts of things, what I would like is a recommendation for a Plex client

  • @GordonBennet, I don't believe there's any other Plex clients, as it is not opensource. – Ntechhh Apr 25 '19 at 16:21
