Very nice!

[Melbosa]

I agree.  I love that this application continues to evolve and grow!

[Mr. Analog]

It's finally here!

Not that I have more than one person at home, but still, cool stuff.

Now if they only add a feature to wipe watch history I'd be a happy camper. I don't know about you guys but sometimes I feel like watching a single episode of a series and don't want to see all the stuff cluttering up the dashboard. I know you can mark series as "watched all" but you have to go into each series profile and blah blah blah

[Lazybones]

Mark all watched or in the library under advanced hide the whole library from adding items to the home screen.

[Mr. Analog]

The thing is sometimes I want recently watched items there .I just want a button on that view so I can quickly clear the items there.

Unless that's what you're saying, in which case I'll check it out tonight

Edited:
You can mark entire series / seasons as watched by going into them and clicking watched.

You can also multi-select  series or seasons and mark them watched.

You can trigger multi-select mode with the button in the attached image

[Mr. Analog]

It's a bit better that way, but still, would be cool to just have a button to clear the page

Thanks!

Most of the PAY clients for Plex are on sale right now, well worth the purchase in my opinion.

The Windows 8 native app is actually really nice.

I already bought the android client. was worth it the first day I used it even if all I mostly do is watch stuff from my bedroom

I watch more of my content on my Phone than my TV as well

Sometimes I just want to watch a few things on my nexus 7 (2013). Its a really nice size for that. Though I don't actually do it that often... I'd be using it here, but the internet sucks too much for that (or so im assuming), and my nas is currently DOA. boh. I'll try hooking up to yours at some point, but the internet we have really bogs down during peak times, which is of course when I want to use it the most.

Sure it's cold in Canada, but at least we have reliable high-speed internet!

I'll double check later but I believe I granted you offline sync rights on my server. Thus if you can use that to download an offline copy to watch later without the streaming issues.

Just don't go nuts syncing everything.

Which is why it's so expensive eh?

Its less reliable here, AND more expensive. And I'm not even adjusting for cost of living. It is purely just more expensive here. 100mbps cable? $500/mo cad. And I have my doubts as to the stability. I am pretty sure they are also limiting my per connection speed at times to 30-60kBps. Makes youtube at peak times quite sucky, even at 480p and even sometimes 360p.
