Hi there,
I have an LG and Samsung smart TV. Both of them will no longer support NowTV on the in-built app towards the end of the month.
I have a Plex server that runs on a Desktop PC which then in turn streams my personal content to the TV's in the house. Plex allows me to stream content such as podcasts etc and has a live TV / PVR section too. I was wondering whether there is any way at all of logging into NowTV via Plex so that I can continue to watch NowTV on the devices that have been made redundant only via Plex instead of the on-board NowTV app?

So that’s a 2014 or earlier Netcast LG TV presumably?
If you call up Live Chat, they will likely send you a Stick you can use on that TV.
What model of Samsung TV is being sunset though? I haven't seen any notification of any such this month.

@Anonymous User It’s not possible to access via PLEX. As @RoyB says, you will need to get a separate device (e.g. Roku or NOW TV stick etc) that is capable of running the Now TV app and plug it into your tv via a spare HDMI socket.
