himedia box like lot of player NOT need plex server , all media format h.264,h.265  are supported.

himedia player need only a SMB/samba net shared folder.

You can use plex client with external player himdiavideooplayer ,but there are plex server limmitaion : no external subtitle, no ISO file ecc..
Kodi it's best option form jukebox.

Plex server it's good for smart tv only support DLNA and few video format.

Why do you need plex server?

I know that himedia can read all format.
I have some hard disks on my mac, and actually, i read my films from my mac on my multimedia player using plex server.
Plex gime me the way to read my film which are on my mac  by wifi on my wdtvlive.
I hope you could understand what i mean, because my english is not very good...

You can use Plex and Kodi... no need to choose one.
