I have a number of devices that I use to enjoy Plex on and I find I need to toggle settings across the board when I find a new feature or my preferences change.

Ideally, I would like to be able to control the following from the server:

1. Default User
2. Auto logon
3. Volume boost
4. Background style (Dim/Blur)

There are already several such requests here, which wish themselves to take over the settings for the clients at the server and also various new settings which one wishes oneself. It’s best to use the search function, there are some who already have votes, you’d have to look at merging them to make some progress. If we have 10 threads with 3-4 votes each, it will probably never be anything.
