Is It Possible to Stream iTunes Video to Plex Media Server?

Plex Media Server allows streaming and playing nearly all kinds of local media files including MP4, MOV, AVI, MPEG video files, MP3, WMA audio files, and etc. However, there is a special video format that Plex Media Server doesn't support. It is the M4V files the suffix of which is .m4v. Mostly, the M4V files are downloaded from iTunes Store and they are most likely to be purchased or rented for enjoying. These kinds of videos have DRM protections that prevent you from copying and transferring to other devices or programs for playing. They can only be played on Apple devices or authorized iTunes on 5 computers.

So, by default, Plex Media Server is not able to play DRM protected iTunes videos. The best way to successfully import iTunes DRM videos to Plex Media Server for streaming and playing is to record iTunes videos and convert iTunes DRM M4V to common videos like MP4, MOV, AVI, and etc. What you need is a powerful DRM removing tool and iTunes M4V Video Converter on Mac.
