Hey, hope you are doing fine. I would like to confirm if there is a better way to watch Plex in Linux, maybe a Plex client? Or use an external player ? In linux, browsers don’t support hardware acceleration.

There’s no official player/client on Linux. As for unofficial stuff… There’s a project in the Plex Labs for audio playback -> Plexamp Apparently some user(s) have created an Linux version of the Plex Media Player Plex Media Player packages for Linux

Is there a way to watch Plex through Linux without using a browser?
