Plex lets people create their own streaming service. I host my collection of movies and TV shows on a computer at home and can play that content anywhere, like a personal Netflix.
That’s it! You can start looking for something to watch.
If you have any questions or need any help, just ask!
It’s just like Netflix or other streaming services you’ve used before.
From the side nav, pick Movies or TV Shows to browse, or use Search.
Search may include results both from my content (shown as being on Scylla) and from Plex’s ad-supported streaming service.
Just click Play to start watching. You can change audio or subtitle settings at any time.
As with any streaming service, Plex uses your internet. If you have unlimited data like me, go nuts. If you have a monthly cap, just be mindful.
TIP: You can update your account settings online to enable subtitles without having to select them every time you start watching.
NOTE: If you ever see ads, you’re watching something from Plex’s own ad-supported service. You will never see ads while watching anything from my server.
