For some reason, I had really thought that Plex was open source. I at least thought there were a Mac OS X version of it.
Looking closer, I see that there are clients for different platforms, but the server piece is proprietary lunux software. I am glad I check out the home page before I stuck my foot into my mouth. :) In reviewing the wikipedia page on Plex, I see that Plex is a fork of XBMC, which does appear to be open source. Would XBMC meet your needs/requirements? If so, would it make more sense to try and get XBMC running vs Plex? Or is there a specific feature that is only available on Plex? I am just trying to understand your requirements better.
