Most beautiful, efficient media library browsing experience in the world, scaled to any resolution (jagged posters and fonts are so 2002).Needs to render hellishly complex anime subtitles without batting a tentacle, and support all the high-end features true Home Theater devotees want: refresh rate switching, display sync, rich subtitle support, popcorn maker integration, etc. Needs to play every format under the sun. Best media playback engine in the world.The final must-have list, written on an IPA-stained napkin, looked something like this: We took a long, hard look at our current flagship for home theater enthusiasts, Plex Home Theater, and asked ourselves which bits we wanted to take to the next level and which ones we’d be happy sacrificing in a leaner, meaner, more beautiful, purpose-built high end Plex experience. If you’re like us, you have a plasma TV whose size and sticker price your friends mock (but your cat gladly sleeps next to in the winter), more speakers than you can count (note to kids: they’re speakers, not climbing equipment), and a subwoofer that stresses the dog out every time it growls and rumbles below 20Hz.

Read more below after taking a look at some images of the beautiful new app. It’ll be free for everyone after the preview period. Let us know what you think in the new forum, or read all about it here. The Plex Pass preview of the app is available today for download (sign into your Plex Pass-enabled account and choose the “Plex Pass Downloads” button). (Full disclosure: we ran Most Best Great Media Player Ever >9000 v3.11 for Media past marketing and they didn’t bite.)ĭon’t feel like reading all about it and just want to DOWNLOAD ALL THE ONES AND ZEROS?

It represents an exciting new direction for us in lots of ways, and we call it the Plex Media Player. We’ve had a crack team working for the better part of a year on an app we’ve built from the ground up to deliver the absolute highest quality media browsing and playback experience.

We’re incredibly proud to be taking the wraps off the future of premium media consumption in Plex. We have something really special to share with you today.
