On the plex server setting: Force video and audio setting for plex client.

This setting will lock video and audio settings for the server share.

In the setting we can select:

Video Quality: (480p, 720p, 1080p, Orignal)  
Audio Quality  
Direct play (Yes/No)  
Allow to change the quality automatically: (Yes/No)

Also if possible:

Allow to do it for each user separately.

Why we need this setting?

Normally I would go in front of the device and do it for my family but whit the COVID-19 I cannot do it. So if we can manage this remotely it will be awesome.

If you are not sure about this feature:  
Try to explain to your grandmother how to change setting in plex client.
