    Merry Christmas, I only started using Plex this month for the first time. I have a half terrabyte of Christmas content that no channels show anymore and having all that available from my mini pc to my fire 4k max and echo studio made it easy for us to naviagate our own collection and they even had there own Plex selection of Christmas videos too was a real plus.

      Are you talking about downloading your locally hosted music files with PlexAmp or movies with Plex in general? Quite possibly the issue is a folder access (authentication) restriction depending on where you are trying to place/store the file.

    How about they fix the Roku bug that crashes some Roku TV? That bug has been around for years and they don't even acknowledge it. I have a lifetime pass and I still regularly think about ditching Plex. I'm also annoyed with how much reliance Plex has on the cloud. Cloud authentication is default and turning on local authentication can only be done while you have Internet. If your internet goes down and your session expires you can't use Plex to watch local media. The whole point of Plex was local media.

    • @JoriDiculous

    Hello Shannon. Thanks for another great video. Not a comment about Plex but could you perhaps look into your microphone settings once? Not sure how to describe it but the audio lacks richness and sounds tinny. Played the video with two earphones, then on iPhone speaker and then TV speaker.

      I’ve never run plex and just fired up Jellyfin within the last year. (Living under a rock, what?) Other than transcoding issues (server is a pi) and the client a $25 Roku trying to stream h.265 video, it’s been a pretty good experience. I hear that JF used to be a lot rougher and it’s recently gotten better.

    Plex needs to fix the current problems of Atmos support for Apple TV users. This has been outstanding for years and never gets fixed. As a Plex pass subscriber they are ignore the core functionality and adding in items that are not really required for a media server

    • @psitakozaurdino9434
      @psitakozaurdino9434 Месяц назад

      In my opinion, Atmos makes no sense. Atmos only makes sense if you have several speakers connected and properly spaced, if the music file is recorded in multichannel and if you have a suitable room for it. Usually, there are no conditions for this in homes. Besides, few songs are recorded in multichannel.
