Plex Media Server 0.9.9.1 is now available to Plex Pass holders.

There are lots of good things in this release, especially for those of you who have large libraries and find full scans take a long time. Read carefully and discuss the new stuff in the preview release forum  :)

WARNING: we've gotten some reports that the new partial scanning stuff can remove stuff from your library and make you have to scan it in again.

The release can be downloaded from https://plex.tv/downloads
