  • DVR Recording of Live TV

You can, of course, also watch content live, wherever you are, on tons of devices.
  • Downloads
    • Use Downloads to load copies of your content on your phone or tablet so you can use it when you don't have internet access. Downloads also helps make sure you always have the next episode of your favorite show ready for your commute. You can also Download content to your Windows or Mac desktop Plex app.
  • Plexamp & Plex Labs
    • Some of the projects coming out of Plex Labs may be available only to Plex Pass subscribers. For instance, the "Plexamp" music player (Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux) as well as the "Plex Dash" server management app (Android, iOS) both require active Plex Pass subscriptions to use.
  • Skip Movies and TV Show Credits
    • Save precious time by skipping over credits in your Movies and TV shows. Your server can analyze movies and episodes to detect credits and give you back precious minutes when you're binging your favorite series or movies.
  • Skip TV Show Intros
    • Save precious time by skipping over intros in your TV shows. Your server can analyze shows to detect intro segments and give you back precious minutes when you're binging your favorite series.

  • Hardware-Accelerated Streaming
    • When using a compatible device or processor on the Plex Media Server, subscribers can make use of hardware acceleration when content needs to be converted (transcoded) during streaming. This can be faster and more power-efficient for users.
  • Custom Sharing Restrictions
    • Create customized restriction settings when sharing with family and close, personal friends. Restrict based on content ratings or your own custom labels.
  • Bandwidth and Transcoding Limits
    • Plex Pass subscribers have additional control over processor usage and network/bandwidth usage when streaming.
  • Early Access
    • Users with an active Plex Pass subscription often get early access to new features or apps. For instance, both Chromecast support and Plex Home Theater were available to Plex Pass subscribers prior to being released for all users.

Current and future Plex subscribers may want to review Plex's Ad Partners page and opt out of data sharing with third-party vendors, if allowed by their state:

Access to the app for streaming away from home. Main benefit is, it enables GPU transcoding. Some of my devices do not support the formats in my library.

My mom used it as her own personal Netflix haha. She will ask me to download shows and movies for her to is. With the sub it enables hardware transcoding
Follow up not noob question. Do the movies and shows come with this Plex subscription? How hard is it for a noobie like me to download movies and shows? Would I need another app/subscription to do this? Sorry I'm new to this and not tech savvy at all. Thank you.

This is to play media that you already own. Instead of opening the .mkv (or whatever format) file on your laptop to watch it, it lets you play it on just about any device. There are some free streaming channels available in Plex, but they are not great imho.

Does this take away all advertising on Plex as well? I am currently using Jellyfin and hardly see any reason to update other than just better support for issues like commercial skipping and other small things...

I really like how it changes browsing files and folders into more like a traditional streaming app experience. It's like your own personal Netflix with only the stuff you want on it.

As someone that finally got it working this month? It's not easy but there are guides out there.

The process of getting the movies isn't "free", most are paying for usenet access and such.

There's intro and ad skipping I believe but instead of that, you get a bunch of trash forced on you such as their free "Plex Movies & TV" which just clutters your UI and have their own ads baked in. All of this stuff is opt out so you have to manually disable it or hide it etc.

You also have to make sure all your privacy options are toggled to protect you because they aggressively capture your info and sell it.

I bailed on them last year when they started emailing any users I was associated with my watch history etc without my consent. You can find many complaints of this if you search for keywords such as Plex Privacy etc. They are not what they used to be and I strongly dislike the company now and use Emby instead.

With Jellyfin, what are you using for offline downloads on iOS devices?

I don't use iOS so can't say. Android downloads work great

I would recommend this five years ago. Today I'd recommend Jellyfin. Plex has morphed into some type of corp that wants to sell you stuff through them - or just sell your info.

Every update seems I'm having to fight plex inspired rentals, channels, linking of subscription apps. Always having to double check what new privacy concern or money grab they've enabled on my sidebar or in settings.

I've got it pretty neutered at this point and it works for me and my environment but if I was starting over I'd go with Jelly. I've got the jelly container that i update and spin up every now and then and see how far they've come and if it's worth a complete swap yet. Almost imo.

I've had Plex and the lifetime pass for years now and it's been the greatest experience for personal use. If you're thinking about getting it, give them the support they deserve!

Love plex pass if you're a big user of the service.

One random plex pass feature I recently noticed. On plexamp it lets you import the highly regarded Oratory1990 equalizer settings for almost all well known high end headphones. Super niche but very neat feature.

Gotta love how simply asking a legitimate question gets you a bunch of down votes from hateful clowns lol
