Plex Ads

Hello,
For some reason one of my tv’s Roku) pulls up advertising when I am streaming from my Plex server.

This just started happening about 1 week ago.

Anyone know why this would happen?

Plex is not putting ads in your media, you are inadvertently streaming from Plex’s On Demand service. My post above gives a little more explanation and how to prevent.

lol like clockwork

One user recently reported ads before their content and were emphatic that they were not using Plex’s own streaming service. It came out a day later that they had enabled “movie trailers” and didn’t know that was why it played a trailer before each movie.

I’d forgotten about that feature, but figured that anyone who turned it on wouldn’t then wonder why there are trailers. I have since remembered to point it out whenever these “ADS!” posts come up.
