What is Plex?

Plex is actually two 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. Together, these two pieces create a powerful way to manage and access your media files.

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 and original air dates, and much more. In minutes, your media collection goes from being a series of files and folders to a Netflix-like experience that you control.

Unlike iTunes, Plex can read just about every media file format you can think of. So if you’ve gotten into the habit of running your media though a converter like HandBrake (Windows, Mac) to make it compatible with your software, you can do away with that step.

Share the love

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. Though some limitations need to be considered, such as the power of your Plex server and how much bandwidth your internet plan includes, it can be a great way to include others. We’ll discuss this in-depth later.

Watch together

What once seemed like a gimmick, co-watching content online is now a much-in-demand activity. If you own a compatible Android phone with a Samsung Gear VR or Google Daydream headset, or an Oculus Go, you can use the Plex VR app to co-watch movies or TV shows with up to four friends.

It all takes place in your choice of a virtual loft apartment or a drive-in theater. While watching, you can interact with voice and even look over at your friends’ avatars sitting on the couch.

Free streaming content

Plex also operates its own ad-supported free streaming video service that can be accessed alongside your personal media. You’ll find a huge repository of movies and TV shows on-tap, with curated lists to help you find the best ones to watch. Known simply as Plex Movies and TV, you can access the service through the web or any Plex client device — even if you haven’t set-up a Plex Media Server.

Live TV, DVR, and more

With an optional Plex Pass subscription, you can access more features like live TV with DVR, parental controls, syncing of your favorite files to your phone, and wireless syncing of your phone’s photos to the media server.

What are the Plex requirements?

For the Plex Media Server, you will need to pick a device on which to install and run it. Your options are:

Or, one of the supported network-attached storage devices (NAS)
Whichever one you choose, a wired network connection for both your server machine and your client device is recommended.  A sufficiently fast Wi-Fi network (routers and devices that support 802.11 AC are best) can work too, but you’ll need excellent signal strength to support streaming in 4K/HDR.

Since the Plex Media Server does the lion’s share of the work involved in organizing and playing back your media, a sufficiently powerful device is important for the best experience. Here’s Plex’s support page that discusses the minimum requirements; it’s a good place to start.

If you only plan to watch one video at a time and you’re not planning to share your Plex library with other users, an inexpensive NAS or a Shield TV might do the trick. However the moment your needs become more demanding, you’re probably going to want to run your server on a desktop or laptop machine.
