Download function

Hello
If I want to disable the download function.
I can’t find this function.
Can you help me please?!

I‘m not sure I understand what you’re asking for.
Where do you want to disable this feature (can you maybe share a screenshot)? Are you asking to disable it for yourself or some other users/friends?

To be able to set up the server .
So that no one can download a movie.
Yes, in a word, to disable this function
And I can’t find where to enter
In Libraries, I don’t have this setting

Other users can only download media from your server for local/offline playback in the desktop app (Plex for Mac/Windows/Linux) and mobile apps if you specifically grant them that option.

To use downloads (and grant that permission to others), you must have an active Plex Pass membership)

I have activated this Plex Pass
After talking to you I now understand what I need to do.
Thank you for your help !

I have one more request if you don’t mind
What setting do I need to do
To have automatic continuity on a series with 9 episodes, let’s say?
Thanks!!

That’ll depend a bit on what client you’re using.
All clients should have an auto-play option.
There’s a feature available on some to configure if playback of the next item starts immediately or after a countdown.

I am very, very sorry.
I have activated this Plex Pass
but I can’t find the Player Experience setting anywhere!
please help me, what am I doing wrong?
thank you!

They are client, not server, settings.

Perfect, I understand
Can you please tell me how to add a user to my server without also seeing the users in home plex, because I can’t find where and how
Thank you very much!!

Settings → Manage Library Access

I apologize
I feel like I don’t know how to ask a question, I’m NOT understood
I know how to add a user !
But I want to know, HOW to add a oser without him seeing other people’s accounts when he logs in.
At the moment all users see all accounts.
and I want each user, when they log in, to see only their account.
How is this done?
Thank you!
And sorry if I don’t write grammatically, I write with google

From what you describe, you’ve added the users as members of your Plex Home (see the settings menu item above the line highlighted by FordGuy61.

You can share libraries with users without adding them to your Plex Home, using the Manage Library Access section.

  1. open https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/settings/manage-library-access
  2. click Grant Library Access
  3. select a friend with whom you want to share a library (or their e-mail address, if they don’t have a Plex account yet and aren’t your Plex friends)
  4. proceed with the dialog of selecting libraries you want to share with them, apply restrictions…

So if I want a user to no longer be visible in Plex home
I only create it from manage library access ?
Without creating the user in Plex Home ?
I understand. Okay. ?
Thank you !

That’s correct.
Plex Home is really only designed for use with members of your immediate family / household.

please!
I’m also interested in adding television channels to my plex, can I do that?
and if I can, do I have to have a TV tuner attached to my computer?
Otherwise, it won’t work?

Yes, you can add TV channels to Plex, and there are a couple of ways to do it.

1. Using a TV Tuner (HDHomeRun)

The easiest and most reliable way is with an HDHomeRun. Basically, it’s a network TV tuner that connects to your home network and lets Plex pull live TV from it.

  • You hook up an HDHomeRun to your antenna or cable source.
  • Connect it to your home network (Ethernet).
  • In Plex, go to Live TV & DVR settings and add the HDHomeRun as a tuner.
  • If you have Plex Pass, you get access to the TV guide and DVR to record shows.

This method works well and integrates properly with Plex.

2. IPTV

If you don’t have a TV tuner, you can use IPTV, but Plex doesn’t officially support it. I’ve played around with it using xTeVe and similar tools, and it works, though it needs some setup.

  • Install xTeVe (acts as a virtual tuner).
  • Add your IPTV M3U playlist.
  • Map the channels in xTeVe.
  • In Plex, add it as a tuner under Live TV & DVR.

I haven’t found any tutorial on how to install xTeVe, I don’t know how to use it.

and I also want to know how I can attach a picture to a folder in which I have placed a series?

Googled “xTeVe” and found these. No idea how well it works.

It is not possible to display a picture when in folder view.

You can change the cover art for a TV series, when in TV Shows view (versus folder view).
