the following steps helped my to solve the problem.

– Quit Plex
– Quit Plex Media Server (that’s the ‘>’ icon in your Mac’s top menu bar)
– Delete the following files:

~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-Ins/Framework.bundle
~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-Ins/System.bundle

(‘~’ is your user account name)

Once these 2 files have been deleted, start Plex server.

open safari and enter http://localhost:32400/system/:/prefs/set?AS_BETA=1

go to Plex On-line — more — check for updates.. and install all the available updates.

installed the ffmpeg plugin in my macbook Pro:

curl http://ambertation.de/downloads/PLEX/ffmpeg > ~/Downloads/ffmpeg
cp ~/Downloads/ffmpeg ~/Library/Application\ Support/Plex/Plex\ Media\ Server.app/Contents/Resources/

restart plex server one more time.

restart apple tv

connect apple tv to plex server and watch the videos.
