# Customized Plex media server profiles

- On Linux: install/override profiles in `/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Profiles`

```

cd /volume1/@appstore/Plex Media Server/Resources/Profiles

sudo rm Chromecast.xml

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ambroisemaupate/plex-profiles/master/Chromecast.xml

```

Then restart your Plex service.

- *Chromecast Ultra* profile :
