GO GO GO!

Grab it now...even if you don't have Plex installed you'll be glad you did.

It looks cool, but it looks like something for people who watch music videos and tv shows on their phones. Is that accurate?

This app is the client to connect to your plex media server locally or remotely.

Since y'all don't have plex servers setup CAD needs to share his library with y'all.

same thing as windows media server but so much more elegant

- TAKES 5 SECONDS to setup. Point to movie directory, tv show directory, music directory. DONE


- takes all your photos, movie files, music etc. and orangizes it into a "NETFLIX STYLE" UI. it can take the crappiest MKV files and figure out what it is.

- organizes videos into movies & tv. allows the continuous 'watch next' style of netflix for tv series you are binge-watching and remembers bookmarks/progress

- native chromecast support

- automatically 'transcodes' your gorgeous 1080p BD rip into whatever the bandwidth will handle (720p, etc.) to ensure you get the netflix experience when watching a movie

- gorgeous wallpaper/background while stuff is paused or loading..i used it for TRUE DETECTIVE and was blown away

- as you drop new stuff into the library, automatically adds it and even puts a "NEW" logo next to it

all in all, for FREE its killer..and microsoft just announced support for PLEX in Xbox ONE

Not a netflix clone, it organizes your library of media for you to play on your devices. You steup the server on your main PC pointing to the folders containing the media and your Roku for example streams it through Plex.

You can also install a "bookmarklet" in your browser, go to sites that stream video and queue the videos to be played on your devices that may not be able to directly access those sites.

I got a Roku and hated Plex. I returned the Roku for an Ouya with XBMC, much better for me.

it only makes sense if you have lots of downloaded movies & junk you would like to elegantly serve to your internal network.

takes what other shitty products like WME do and make it beautiful.

if you are content with netflix streaming and dont have a large library on your local network, you probably won't care.


but still..you might one day..jsut grab it anyway. you'll own it forever then.
