How to disable transcoding (I'm tired fighting with Plex)

While yes, I can post logs, a sample, numbers, etc, my rant is mostly about what would this change? I want an option to disable transcoding, not having to come here every time something does not work because I cannot disable or change something else. I see an ability to disable transcoding as a basic function and I mostly want to make the Plex Staff see this and re-consider. I’m not the only one asking about the ability to disable audio transcoding and having a control over what and when gets transcoded.
The list does not end here as well - for example I no longer can set the GUI elements the way I was able to some time ago.
In my eyes Plex is taking Apple route and I would rather want to be able to set things the way I want and not the way someone else things I should have it set.
