I got surface tablet, and I found plex web performs more consistent that native windows app store app. (using chrome)
However, a few things bugs me a lot, hopefully it can be fixed (with ease) after point it out.
Basically, most touchscreen touch action is considered as 2 mouse clicks. And some area may be protection against double click, so end up as no click.

If a video has been half played (if I click play button, it will ask me if I want to resume or start from beginning), mouse clicking the hoverable play button in the middle will open the video. BUT, touching that area will do nothing. (My current solution is to long touch -> act as right click -> it it works like a regular mouse click, also showing a right click dropdown)

(I don’t remember clearly, like 70% positive, I’ll check later) same half played video, if I don’t click the play button in the center. I click the image and enter the video’s page first, the play button on top bar doesn’t work with a single touch either. Also need long touch -> right click.

in video player, the close video button is on bottom right. If I touch click that button, it’s registered as 2 mouse clicks, it close the video, and click the bottom right area again. The thing is, if I come from a list of videos, the second click will either be “open the video on that bottom right location”, OR, if the list is long enough, click the alphabet index list and scroll to videos start with “Z”. ------ I play a video, not the one I want, close it, go all the way to the end of the list, scroll long list back to previous position to check the next video.
My guess is, touch click DOWN and touch click UP are registered as 2 separate clicks. and isn’t handled specifically.
*It was all working fine before the last big version change.
