Though some limitations need to be considered, such as the power of your Plex server and the bandwidth of your internet plan, it can be a great way to include others. So if you’ve gotten into the habit of running your media through a converter like HandBrake (Windows, Mac) to make it compatible with your software, you can do away with that step.īest of all, your Plex library can also be shared with other Plex users, making it an ideal way to give friends and family members access to your media without having to upload all of it to a third-party cloud service like Google Drive or iCloud. Unlike iTunes, Plex can read just about every media file format you can think of. In minutes, your media collection goes from being a series of files and folders to a Netflix-like experience that you control.
Once installed, the Plex Media Server can automatically augment your collection of movies, TV shows, and music with a huge amount of related content from sources around the web, like movie posters and album art, details on cast and crew members, episode descriptions, original air dates, and much more. Together, these three pieces create a powerful way to manage and access your entertainment and media files. Lastly, and most recently, Plex is now also a platform that can be used to access, aggregate, and search all of your subscribed streaming services (more on this below). Plex is actually three things: It’s free media server software that you run on a PC, Mac, or NAS drive in your home, and it’s also a vast set of free client apps that let you access the media server’s contents from devices like smart TVs, Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, gaming consoles, phones, tablets, and way more.
