Plex has updated the Plex Roku Preview featuring new and improved navigation and @PlexInfo has asked us to “use it for a few days (ideally a full week), and share your thoughts once you’ve had a chance to settle in. The first few hours might feel different, that’s normal, but we think you’ll quickly…

Plex Forum or Plex Reddit pages for support. Plex and the other media management ecosystems like Emby and Jellyfin are all web forum community-based platformed for bug and issue resolution support. Plex, despite being the one with major venture capital investment, does not have a solid foundation fo…

Absolutely brutal to navigate, even for me, been a member since 2012, and I have never seen a more poorly designed and prohibitive interface, never mind any of my family members, they are completely lost in this garbage, just please roll it back before everyone moves to EMBY or something they can un…

I took another look at Emby (downloaded), and I still come back to Plex. I’ve gotten use to the new UI (as I have with streamers who have also adopted the Top Menu), and after awhile have gotten used to it (I actually find it a bit jarring when using Plex on Apple TV which still has the old UI as r…

I think the top menu is never going to be more intuitive than the way it was on the left. All of the supposed benefits of the new menu could be realized with a floating left panel menu. To reduce screen real estate it could auto hide and then you could let people who don’t care about that pin the me…

For the love of all that is good and shiny, please give us back the sidebar! Whomever is designing these new UI elements either isn’t actually testing them, or there is some kind of CO leak in the QA and UX departments that appears to be causing delusional thinking - they honestly aren’t an improve…

I’ve spotted a bug that I wanted to report - it is a collections ‘view’ issue with build 9.0.31 prod and I’m not sure this is the best place to report it, but anyway…..it occurs with collections with 2 or more rows and after going into the movie and coming back out, the screen looks normal briefly, …

I disagree on the improved aspect.
