I know i'm able to sync with the iPad
but in some cases, it would be nice to be able to download a smaller, transcoded version of a movie.. eg: movie = 18 GB, downloaded size = 2 GB
normally i do all these things with Handbrake - but Plex already have all the data i want to embed:
- subtitles
- metadata
- Cover (making the MP4 file pretty sweet !)
Prefereably i would like to be able to make advanced settings like:
- specify output dimmensions (max height x max width)
- cropping (16:9 or 4:3 ... etc)
- avarage / contanst bitrate (in order to know output size)
So essentially use Plex as a tool, more than a service..
Some users of a shared server might also just want to download a movie for offline use later using Plex/Web - but at the moment they can't sync and downloading will use the full filesize eg: 18 GB - which is not cool
