Can we get experimental player in guest or other Home users?

My main profile has test libraries, UHD samples, etc etc that confuse clutter the UI of family, visitors, etcm; or worse tie up cpu hard transcoding something unintentional and un-monitored. I usually run under wifes profile or sometimes guest for viewing… Leaving my main pincode’ed for admin purposes.

Would like to see more runtime with experimental player for wife and guests when Im not here… left automatically logging into those other profiles… but blocked by the plexpass paywall.

App was behind on autouodate, now works for guest, but also created a managed user for home theater use. :grinning:

Just don’t turn it off for any managed user, or you cannot turn it back on again without being prompted to buy another Plex Pass subscription. @sergiou87 - any idea on why this is?

I think it’s a bug that it’s allowed at all as it’s been stated in other threads that the enhanced player is only available to Plex Pass users.

Bug is more that if you turn it off as a Plex Pass user, you can’t turn it back on. Other users in home group are also covered as a Plex Pass user

I turn my on and off all the time without issue but then I’m the primary account for Plex Pass.

Here’s the post that discusses this; I admit in not being up to speed on the nuances of guest, home, managed, etc users. But certainly not everyone has access to the enhanced player even though they might “inherit” other features.
