Hi,  
I try to use your service for my client site. I installed Plex server and opened remote access for it. I tried to use many PHP libraries, but they don’t work with your API as needed:

My client wants to play videos from plex server on his site. Can I do it with your Plex API? Does it allow with your rights  
to embed videos from Plex server in my client website?

Also I couldn’t find any official documentation for Plex API. I found only unofficial documentation:

Do you provide API with documentation for your Plex service?
