Before the most recent update to the Apple TV Plex app, when I would do a search using Siri on the search page, the results returned would be in a grid that was under the search bar and would reference the titles in my library.

Now when I do a search using Siri (a typed search works the way the old Siri search worked so no issue there) I get a list of about 5 bubbles on the right side of the screen that only reference paid versions of the shows in the search results. Is there a setting somewhere that I missed to overcome this issue?

I went into the search settings in the Plex app and set them all to only use my local library but it ignored all of my choices.

TIA

You have to be “in focus” on the keyboard at the top when you press the button on the remote to use Dictation search, otherwise it does the Siri search for non-Plex results. It’s been like that since they released the “new" style” iOS app, at least.
