Once that is complete, we need to unpack it by using the following command, sudo dpkg -i plexmediaserver_1.15.3.876-ad6e39743_b It should look something like this, wget Go back to your pi’s terminal window and enter the following, wget On your local computer, go to the following link: Select Linux and under Choose Distribution, copy the link by right clicking and selecting Copy link address (don’t download it on your local computer) of the file corresponding to whether your pi is ARMv7 or ARMv8 Most likely, it will be ARMv7
Remember this as we will need it when downloading the file. Under model name: check whether it says ARMv7 or ARMv8. This will output a list of details for your processor. Now, we need to install the official package of Plex from their website but before that let’s check whether your pi is ARMv7 or ARMv8. Then we remove the old repo, sudo rm /etc/apt//pms.list Ssh into your pi and let’s begin the upgrade, ssh we remove the old installer, sudo apt-get remove plexmediaserver-installer The good news is that if you follow this step by step, your Plex library will be preserved and you won’t need to re-add everything :) Plex officially supports the Raspberry Pi architecture so thank you to Jan Friedrich who has provided the Raspberry Pi installer for so many years! In the last server update, he sent a message (which I have attached at the end of this article and have pretty much followed here) that he would no longer be supporting the installer package. IMPORTANT: This is a supporting article for those of you who followed my previous tutorial on setting up a Plex Media Server on a Raspberry Pi 3 - Others may use it too but it assumes that you have the same setup I outlined in my tutorial.
