Plex client for Raspberry Pi 4 running Raspberry Pi OS

Does any native Plex client exist for Raspberry Pi 4 running Raspberry Pi OS (previously called Raspbian)? Either built by Plex or by the community?

I tried accessing Plex through Plex Web, but that is not performant enough for 1080p video and leads to stuttering.

I cannot install a custom dedicated OS such as rasplex/OSMC/OpenELEC, as I also perform other tasks on this Raspberry Pi that require me to install software and have access to e.g. VSCode or a regular webbrowser.

I saw a post on how to compile PMP, Plex media player, directly from GitHub for raspi4.

Check out this site for instructions Raspberry Pi Plex Media Player - Pi My Life Up

Thanks, it worked! Because I’m running 64-bit version of Raspberry Pi OS, I needed to slightly adapt the qt5 installation:

sudo apt install qt5-default qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtwebchannel qml-module-qtwebengine
