Best features IMO are Plex Home (either my partner or I can log into shared devices), the TV tuner DVR capabilities, and hardware transcoding
Does plex support dolby vision, dolby atmos and dts on your downloaded media video?
Nice! I have been waiting for a discount!
I am however still unsure about how many of the features that will be available to the couple of friends that i have given access to my library.
If anyone is looking to upgrade, here is the Promo code: GETGEEKY
No one else has mentioned it but I really like the search Subtitle feature with Plex Pass. If you’re already watching something and realize you’re missing subtitles, you can search and download them using the subtitle menu.
Subscription-less DVR for life when you bring your own network antenna. I recommend HDHR Flex 4K.
With DVR, Plex will detect commercials after a show is recorded, then auto-skip commercials within seconds of them starting during playback. I haven’t watched a TV commercial for Prime Time shows in SO LONG, and I don’t have to do anything to make it happen. (Autoskip function is set in the Plex Player device’s settings.)
The best part is “hour-long” shows take closer to their actually runtime, 37-45 minutes (?).
PS- Another way I skip commercials is that the HDHR can pause live TV. When I come back to it (up to 45 minutes later), I can Fast-Forward past the ads. It works while watching through Plex, too, but this is a HDHR function, not a Plex function. HDHR brings OTA TV to any “smart” screen inside your home network, too.
Where did you find it for 20% off?
Hardware Acceleration.
I bought my first license back in 2014 then I ended up buying a second license just because I wanted to support the devs a bit more in 2022.
Out of all the software that I use, Plex is definately on top.
The only issue I have with this damn hobby is the amount of money I put into data storage over the years.
Enable Skip intro and credits along with HW encoding if your system supports it!
Plex pass gets you a TV guide that you can use with a DVR solution like HDHomeRun if you have any OTA broadcasts you’d like to DVR. Remote access is also a must.
I did the same thing. I immediately noticed a substantial decrease in load times.
Do you need vpn to check out Plex channels in USA?
I really like the ability to add user accounts that you can limit the libraries and the ratings they are able to watch. Great for kids.
I don’t see 20% off. Sad days
If the owner of a Media Server buys it, does it apply for every user that has access to his libraries?
Thank you
2014 here, but only bought the Lifetime Pass in 2018.
Where is the link? I can’t see the discount in there website. Thanks
Didn’t know it was on sale until I sow the post thanks bud
Analyze all your series so you can skip the intro and credits…
