When will plex support RISC-V? The crossover point for apps is happening and PLEX should support it. I purchased a Orange Pi RV2 and am surprised to learn that PLEX is not available. Looking forward to the beta version if it hasn’t already appeared; thanks.

Best,  
Chris

My guess would be the 32nd of Nevuary. But here’s a link to a YT channel for a RISC-V super-fan.

I guess. I hope the powers in the x86 and arm world are not twisting the arms of the ecosphere to disallow it at all costs but I would not be surprised if that is the case. The world of smart-tv apps is very opaque and self interest serving which is unfortunate.
