If, like us, you need to set up Plex manually, the first thing you have to do is tell it where your media resides. It is definitely worth noting, though, that Plex is a very capable product even without subscribing to a Plex Pass.

More practically, Plex Pass subscribers also get the ability to: copy movies/TV shows to their tablets for offline viewing move selected media to Google Drive, Dropbox, or Box, allowing it to be accessed when their home PC is turned off free access to the Plex Android, Roku, VIZIO, Xbox, and PlayStation apps automatic syncing/backup of your phone/tablet photos to your server and the aforementioned user accounts within your household.

And, with so many movie trailers in your library, you can even activate an option to show a specified number of movie trailers (either those from your library or upcoming/new releases) before your chosen movie, which really puts the 'theatre' in home theatre.

Surficially, you'll have вЂ“ in addition to the movie posters, synopses, and other information вЂ“ movie trailers and other extras accessible from your library, which can actually be a blessing when navigating large video libraries full of movies that friends have recommended over the years. What do 'Plex Pass' subscribers get access to? That is, you can use it for free, but if you want some of its handiest features, you're going to have to fork out for a subscription (either US$5 per month or US$40 per year) or a once-off, lifetime pass fee of US$150. Now, as we mentioned before, Plex is a 'freemium' service. This is particularly handy for quickly moving something from your tiny screen to your TV.

Speaking of buttons (poor segue, we know), one of the handier features that Plex offers is a bookmarket that you can install in your browser (mobile or desktop), that will add the current video or audio that your enjoying from a streaming service like YouTube or Vimeo to a 'Watch Later' section in Plex. Obviously, sharing a whole season of a TV Show is entirely impractical, but this does serve as a handy way to send quick recommendations to friends that also have Plex, as every app or interface comes equipped with share buttons. You also have the option to share your media with friends and family, if you want them to share in the joy of what you're watching or listening to, without having to actually watch or listen to it with them. You can even set up multiple users within the house, so that you can keep track of what episode you're due to watch next, or restrict the content that they have access to, based on rating or library. You can even discover new content under the 'Discover' tab, which will recommend content based on your viewing habits, or just by going to a movie you love, and clicking on the director or other cast/crew member to see what else is available in your library with/by them.ДЇurther to this, you can use the Plex app on your phone to control the Plex version running on the device hooked up to your TV вЂ“ giving you a touch interface, rather than the often painful keyboard + mouse/TV remote interface so often associated with home theatre PCs.ДЄnd, because Plex's database is stored on a central server (your PC running the Plex Media Server), it means that you can stop a movie or TV show on your TV, and pick it up again in your pocket or in another room. This all feeds into an attractive interface that will make choosing your next flick a joyous breeze. Just like with Kodi, Plex scans your media and then retrieves rich metadata for it, so that your movies and TV shows are viewed using posters and recognisable art work, as well as being browse-able/searchable by year, watched/unwatched status, genre, actor/actress, director, and more.

Having the media accessible isn't the whole picture, though: what really makes Plex special is its interface.
