r/PlexMedia

Holy f**K. Unusable.

The latest client is dogshit. Holy fuck Plex has trashed the navigation, and on TV when served from PC the aspects are all wrong. I went through all menus and wasn't able to sort out the aspect issue.

Anyone else suddenly getting a lot of telesync?

Had my setup working for a long time and never had many issues. Lately I'm getting a lot of telesync files. I have my profiles setup to trash guides and never had this problem except for lately.

Before I dig in too hard, I thought I'd ask if it's just me

"Where to watch" built for tvOS. (Plex, Trakt, Letterboxd, Overseerr+arr configs all integrated)

It's called WatchQueue. It's native tvOS, just me, been grinding on it for about 6 months. still rough in spots but i'm polishing more and more with every bit of feedback. Refined the UI over and over again until it made my use case scenario easier. based on feedback from active users, I've added in a few new things in this new version:

Trakt's optional now, there's a Plex tab that pops up so you can view your library from within, and you can request stuff through Overseerr directly from the couch. Main features are still there, click on a title and itll take you straight to it's streaming page or your personal library if it's configured.

anyway, more tweaks coming in the next few weeks including SIMKL and WETRAKR integration...

Plex no longer working….Help

Can someone please help this 51 year old computer illiterate, huge music/movie fan. I’m a Plex pass user, everything was working great, but after an update I can’t use Plex at all. I don’t have much spare cash, and I’m running the app on Western Digital mycloud (I know!!) I’ve got to a point where I probably need to restart everything but unsure how to do this

Seems as when adding movies some just don't show up, I will explain

I am noticing something I hope to hear you guys on. I've currently got over 6,000 movies and went from an Nvidia shield to a PC years ago. 80% of my movie files are from the same source, private "sharing site" and most are same file types.

I usually gather movies for a week or two, then move them over from another PC to my server, 5-20 at a time.

I usually keep Plex browsing set to "by date added" to see what just got added.

Sometimes I will add say 20 movies and scan library , and they will show up except for a couple.

I stay on top of sorting by duplicates because it can happen and delete accordingly in/with Plex.

It's hard sometimes to figure out which ones aren't showing up.

I'm asking why this happens, or any info or tips about this. Also sorting by date added, and then sorting by say release date will show some of them, but they should be showing up in the date added, but don't. Without searching by name that is.

Seems odd.

Love to hear what y'all say, I've been helped by this sub many times, cheers.

TautWeekly v14.1 — Personalized Dynamic/Responsive Weekly Plex Newsletters for Every User With GUI

https://reddit.com/link/1vrcyvi/video/f46km4n8q1kh1/player

Repost, but come a long way!

Nothing unique, I know there's a lot of Newsletter apps out there, but I find them insanely ugly and this started as a passion project.

Built a portable Tautulli newsletter with responsive design (for mobile gmail, apple) and dynamic content. Pulls in live cleartype logos, RT ratings and IMDB for TV shows. Last post had a lot of positive feedback and went overboard and introduced a GUI 14 versions later.

Project is primarily Codex but already had over 1k downloads.

Adds dynamic subject/preview text. Email will swap out trending with "binge" award depending on server stats.

Features 5 different email types based on sever activity (such as new additions) and then custom metrics or "quiet" mode.

Have it going out every Friday morning.

Email States Preview
GUI Preview

New additions added that week:

  1. New user first scheduled newsletter - no history
  2. New user first scheduled newsletter - with history (such as if they accept on a Monday and already start watching)
  3. Established user - normal newsletter with activity

Quiet mode, no additions added that week:

  1. Established user - quiet/no watch activity
  2. Established user - stats warming up

GitHub:

TautWeekly

OS Packages:

NAS/Docker Packages:

Testing, feedback all welcome :)

Black Sails missing episodes

I was thinking about watching the seasons 3 and 4 of Black Sails on plex, since I've watched the first 2 seasons. But season 3 only has 4 episodes, season 4 only has 2 episodes. I'm in the United States. Is this what everyone else is seeing?

Question about giving Managed Account access to Plex library

After lots of trial and error I figure that this is pretty much an impossible thing to do on Plex. I have created a managed account under my main plex profile and I would like for this account to have an age restriction set on it, but still have access to the Plex Library that I have set on my account. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to give that sub-account access though.
Is it because I am using a friend’s shared library? It seems to me that I need to be the owner of the library to actually make this happen.
The other thing I tried was to make an entirely new account and just put age restrictions on it, but you can only restrict a Managed Account!
Does anyone here have a definite answer to this and know whether it is a possibility for me to make this situation work?

iCloud as server for plex?

Subtitles

What is your preferred method for locating the correct subtitles? There seem to be many options available, even after selecting the option for Plex to find them.

Sound thru TV speakers via Roku

Currently using Plex thru a Roku Express 4K on our main OLED TV. Trying to decide on a sound system that fits the spot later, but I digress. Since we’re using the tv speakers I’m trying to decide where in Plex to set the sound so it plays properly on the this TV. We have another tv with a better setup so I want the 5.1 for that location.

I’m assuming I need to change the output more in the plex app on the Roku express than at the server source. Any advice here or do I need to downgrade the video file sources?

Having issues with Plezy lately.

Have to say right off the bat, it has been working so great for me since I jumped on board a week ago but today issues started creeping up. Desktop app has no audio. Tried updating to latest build in hopes of resetting something I messed up, no such luck. The mobile app seems to be buffering a lot. I thought it may have been my NAS since I keep movies and TV shows on separate drives.

It is very inconsistent. You see how it plays while others buffer after a few seconds and stays there.

It "seems" a work around is to skip episodes to make it work. No idea what's happening but hope others are experiencing it as well and we can at least siolated to the software and not a local issue.

Why does my Home Page have a random "Mummy Universe" tab amongst my pinned channels and how to I get rid of it?

As you can see in the photo, Plex decided I'm a bit enough fan of The Mummy movies to dump them on my home screen. Why are they there and how do I remove?
