Plex

Your Plex library. Your player.

Does it play the original?

  • Dolby VisionProfiles 5, 7, 8.1 and 8.4
  • Dolby AtmosStream-copied from E-AC-3, not re-encoded
  • TrueHD and DTS-HD MAPlay free, bridged to surround or lossless FLAC
  • Your serverDirect play when possible, conversion when needed

Original-file playback keeps compatible media on the device. Mobile quality limits can request a server conversion instead; Plex settings and entitlements still apply.

Can I make the subtitles readable?

The subtitle style panel open during playback, with OpenDyslexic selected and the subtitle rendered in it

Pick a font, adjust position in 0.5% steps or display two tracks at once. Subtitle search stays in the player.

What you get with Plex

  • Subtitle searchFind and load one from inside the player
  • Subtitle stylingAlways yours, never the server’s
  • Skip introsReads the markers your server provides
  • Plex HomeServer users keep their own history and restrictions, separate from Plozz profiles

Is that an age recommendation or a review score?

  • Recommended agePlex-provided Common Sense Media guidance
  • Topic detailsRequires an eligible active Plex user with Plex Pass access
  • Review scoresChoose sources, priority and the number shown
  • Provider scopeCommon Sense Media is Plex-only, not a feature of every server

They’re separate. Plex movie and show details can show Common Sense Media’s recommended age alongside review scores. Choose age visibility and review-score visibility independently.

More ways to watch

  • Quality on iPhone and iPad

    Movie and episode presets or Custom resolution and total-bitrate limits, saved per Plozz profile for local, remote Wi-Fi/Ethernet and cellular connections.

  • Original or converted

    Keep the original when it fits. Automatic and codec preferences use supported server conversion; hardware transcoding generally needs Plex Pass. HDR and audio can change.

  • Offline on mobile

    Download films and episodes on iPhone and iPad, subject to the server’s permissions and capabilities.

  • Change versions

    Choose another file or edition on the active account in the TV or mobile player. Position and playback settings carry over, but different cuts needn’t share the same timeline.

  • Libraries and extras

    Collections, bonus videos and A–Z jumps in name-sorted individual or combined libraries.

  • Current stream info

    See measured conversion dimensions, codecs and audio when known, separately from original-file metadata and selected quality limits.
