I have been a Plex user for years now and as much as I love its features, I am still baffled by some of the simplest missing things. I for one could do without a LOT of the new features such as Podcasts and News, after all I started my server in order to stream and share “my media”. That being said, why does a 4Mbs video with 128kbs aac audio track in mp4 format still buffer on my 1 gig service to an XBox One? Refining the streaming I believe would be top priority before “News” and “Podcasts”.
Additionally, the feature to suggest content to friends and family through plex is one feature that has been missing since the beginning. Why? It would also be nice to be able to allow people to receive notifications when new media has been added to a server. It simply seems as if not enough emphasis has been put into bringing people together and communicating, and no the VR room does not count (another feature I could do without).
Plex I think needs to get back to basics and really focus on the personal media side of things. Run smoother with more personal touches.
