Android Plex app view details of downloaded and transcoded files

Is there a way in the Android Plex app to view details of downloaded media (sync’ed from PMS but transcoded), things such as file size, bitrate, tracks, etc. just like one can via the web interface? I can see the total size of all downloads but not individually. Am I missing something or is it not available?

Same question for iOS/iPad.

I cannot confirm this for Android – you cannot seem to display information about file size or bitrate in the iOS app (except as “playback information/details” when you’re actually playing the file). The downloaded / available audio and subtitle tracks are listed on the download’s details page.

How are we supposed to manage storage if we can’t see which downloads take most space?

While viewing the Items tab under Downloads, change the sort to “Size on disk”. It will show you the size of each Downloaded job. If the job is a season or a playlist, it will only tell you the total size of what’s in the list, not individual items. The size can be mis-leading due to duplication if you have the same item multiple times. i.e. If you have a movie in multiple playlists that you’ve downloaded, each playlist will include the size of that movie.

Amazing! Thank you. Now would it kill them to just show the size all the time and maybe other info about the files?
