[ COMMUNITY UPDATE ] - A Note on piracy and Lemmy.world's decision to ban piracy communities - 2023-08-14 (lemmy.ml)

As you may know, Lemmy.world has decided to ban any communities that deal with the subjects of piracy. Considering that this sub might be considered piracy-adjacent, I’d like to make it clear that discussing the subject directly is not allowed, nor is requesting/offering Plex shares in posts or comments....

How do you remove (on plex) suggestions, like "binge worthy shows"

I’m starting to create managed user accounts for my two daughters on plex. They are 7 and 4, so movies I’m giving them access to consist mostly of Pixar/Disney type stuff. Well, when I log into their users, it has recently added movies and TV shows, which show appropriatle the things I’ve given access to from my server....

Still no way to set a default version of a movie, right?

Before I even start let me say that I know the suggestion is to put 4k into it own library…...

Not sure where to start. Playback from webclient is great but HTPC program is performs terribly. Same machine, local media.

Can anyone point me in the right direction here? I have a pretty beefy PC I use as a server and HTPC. 24 2.5ghz cores, 64gb ram, kind of a crappy video card, debian 11. I just migrated all my stuff over and stress tested it supporting 8 different transcribed streams simultaneously (mix of in/out of local). That worked great....

Quit asking me to rate movies

I know how to turn off the notifications, but Plex should not nag me to rate things I have watched.

Plex.tv outage (plex.statuspage.io)

There’s apparently a Plex outage currently. And it’s a bit frustrating as it’s preventing our TV app from connecting. Just an endless spinner after choosing a user despite only using local media etc.

Occasionally I’ll have an episode of something where the audio is out of sync but it’s ok if I transcode

Any idea why this would happen. I think it’s mostly (if not always on my roku that I’ve noticed it....

What should I do with TrueHD Audio?

When I first learned how to put my media into Plex, I did it by using Handbrake, compressing the content down to .mp4, and doing my best to use “audio passthrough” for the highest quality audio tracks I could find. But nowadays a lot more discs are coming with TrueHD, which apparently isn’t supported by the .mp4 container....
