Plex has notified some of its users on Thursday to urgently update their media servers due to a recently patched security vulnerability.

The company has yet to assign a CVE-ID to track the flaw and didn't provide additional details regarding the patch, only saying that it impacts Plex Media Server versions 1.41.7.x to 1.42.0.x.

Client availability is valid. I use an android tv, that's been easy for me. There are mobile clients for every phone and tablet.

  • I don't know what smart collections are, but I do get automatic collections for franchises (like all "28 x later") via a plugin. I don't have playlists, but I guess I never felt the need for one... What would you use them for, binge watching franchises?
  • skip intro and credits is a thing, built in since a few versions (used to be a plugin)
  • the UI is subjective, and I don't know any other one... I personally like how it looks, I customized quite a bit, easy to do via CSS.
