Plex for Android TV and Android boxes depends on a Plex Server to organize and play movies, TV series, etc. Some people may not have a computer to install the Plex server and end up choosing another app like Mizuu. I would suggest that Plex for Android / Android TV has the feature to play and organize all my media on an external storage by USB or LAN without a server and only for Plex Pass users. Optionally we could choose another app to play the selected media. Thanks and sorry my bad english. Marcelo Gomes ---

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate > [@\[Request\] Plex Media Server for Android TV](https://forums.plex.tv/t/request-plex-media-server-for-android-tv/122856): > > I’m sure some of these newer Android TV devices are powerful enough to transcode and server video files. The Shield TV Pro specifically comes to mind - if it can emulate Wii games, I can only imagine it can transcode video - and these devices are just getting more powerful so I thought I’d bring it up as I wasn’t sure if people had talked about this possibility yet. slight_smile ---
