Can I control my Plex TV playback via my phone?

Plex Players Smart TVs
1

Hello,

I’m running Plex Media Server (v4.22.2) on my desktop PC from which I watch movies of via my LG TV (WebOS 3.5, latest Plex APP).

The control via the physical LG remote’s button are limited, I can however point and click the onscreen controls, but that’s a bit of a hassle.

My question; is it possible to control the Plex app on TV via the Android (10) APP (latest activated version), and thus bypassing the physical remote?

Thanks

I think you can do some of that by casting / flinging the video from the Android client to the desktop client.

The playback / streaming will still happen directly between your server and the desktop client – but it should give you the option to control playback from the Android app.
