To get it working, I used the PMS package from AUR. I followed the instructions on this page https://www.pareshpawar.com/blog/how-to ... rch-linux/

I did have to do a:
sudo pacman -S git
sudo pacman -S fakeroot

before following the instruction or else the makepkg failed.

Once that was done, PMS is now working with Version 1.21.0.3711 and my roku is back.

I would like to issue a small word of caution... More than once I have had an issue with some plex service using 'tmp' and filling up my sda (relatively small drive compared to my data drive). Some people use a large single drive for everything in Myth - I have separated things onto multiples and sda1 is small... (I usually take the defaults when building a machine).

Anyway, for what it is worth I put the plex tmp and support directories on my large data drive - it performs much better and doesn't interfere with myth at all... All it requires is a minor modification to plexmediaserver.conf.d before makepkg

PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR=/data/storage/disk0/media/plex
PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_TMPDIR=/data/storage/disk0/media/plex/tmp
TMPDIR=/data/storage/disk0/media/plex/tmp

You will have to regenerate sha256sum. I will post the specifics if anybody is interested...
