How to stream from a PC to an Amazon Fire TV Stick

How to stream from a PC to an Amazon Fire TV Stick :
https://www.androidauthority.com/stream ... k-1007595/

In Windows this seems to be quite easy.

In Linux it would have to be done using the Plex Media Server

I downloaded Plex from here
https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/
(the version Ubuntu (16.04+) / Debian (8+) - Intel/AMD 64-bit)

I built a module via deb2xzm, but the module doesn't work.
Can someone help?

Hi beny,

VLC

How to Use VLC to Stream Videos to Amazon Fire TV

On Windows this seems easy: In the Control Panel window, select “Network and Sharing Center.” ............

Here it is in detail:

In Windows everything is easy and you can find good explanations.
But on Linux (also Porteus), everything is muddled and complicated.

I think I'm going back to Windows.
