Dear Plex devs,
Can we PLEASE get a feature to set a default streaming quality for all (also shared) clients? I’m tired of my server transcoding streams from 1080p down to SD all the time while it’s totally unnecessary. Takes up so much CPU power, and my users get a worse experience. I know it’s an option the user can easily change, but my users aren’t tech savvy, and are used to a ‘Netflix-like’ experience, where everything just works out of the box. And it does, kinda, but the quality is downright terrible.
I guess the meme I posted more than a year ago still applies.
When I click on an actor, it will only show the media they’re in based on the share of the media I find them in
For example, Liam Neeson shows up separately under my tv shows, movies, and documentaries shares. It would be nice to see a single list of every single show, movie etc he is in. Maybe I watch Taken and didn’t know he was in Extras
This is especially helpful for actors that are lesser known. Does this bother anyone else? Why is it like this instead of aggregating all media like a collection? The actor is essentially a tag/label so it should be possible
A few deals to hopefully start everyone’s weekend off on the right foot.
Appreciate the continued support and please contact me directly if anyone has any questions or concerns.
Stay safe and take care…

My pandemic project was digitizing my physical media library for Plex. Naturally this has lead me down the Sonarr rabbit hole, and this community (by way of searching this sub, wiki, forums and a couple posts here) has been very helpful in getting me set up.
I am now running a dedicated Plex Media Server (2x12TB HDDs and a 1TB SSD Network mapped) with Sonarr integration and a Single Board Computer I call Blackbeard (cheesey, right?) that runs qBitTorrent and a VPN. Torrents load into qBT on Blackbeard, download to my PMS SSD, then Sonarr places them into my HDDs for Plex to file scan.
Tomorrow I will integrate Radarr, Lidarr and Bazarr. I’ll join the Usenet club eventually.
If you have any suggestions of open Torrent Indexers (I’m using Jackett but currently only RARGB and nyaa.si) I’d be all ears.
Thanks for leading me to success!
So this morning my Sonarr instance replaced the latest recent episode of a popular TV series with hardcore porn because the troll uploader marked it as a “repack” of a major scene group. I get downloads from usenet and have a variety of configured indexers. As hilarious as that is for people who have yet to mature past the age of 17, it’s not that funny when moms and people’s kids use your Plex server.
In this case, turning off upgrade to propers/repacks would have prevented this from happening, but, that doesn’t seem like much of a mitigation, because it could have just as easily happened from a 720p -> 1080p quality replacement.
I don’t assume there is any way to totally prevent these cases, but is there any best practices I can follow to reduce the likelihood of it happening?
Thanks!
I prefer having a year on a shows title, It seems to help the matching from plex. Ive tried to play with the media management, but i dont seem to have a way to make it so that a show has the year in the name automatically.
Am i missing something?
Ok for months my radarr was doing this to the same movie(s): https://i.imgur.com/h5v6E5K.png
It would constantly, CONSTANTLY show up in the lower left corner of Radarr. I’m like, why does it keep doing this? I don’t get it? The movie, like, Straship troopers is SET to NOT be monitored, and my stuff is NOT set to constantly scan…
A lot of my movies were imported and used by Radarr, but Radarr didn’t originally get the movie. So out of the few that were being scanned a lot, I choose to take a look at Starship Troopers.
Turns out, in the “File” tab on Radarr for the movie, there was NOTHING in there. However, Plex was receiving the movie just fine and able to play it, but Radarr was like, wtf man? I think it said it was downloaded, but it wasn’t showing in there.
It wouldn’t let me do a manual import.
I then just removed the movie file from my library and had Radarr download it again.
Now there is peace and quiet with Radarr, no more …
Lets say I have Wedding Crashers in 1080p and I want Radarr to automatically upgrade it to the UNRATED version in 1080p. How do I do that?
