At this point it is not supported, cross your fingers it may come to Smart TV in the future.

I would like to have the watch together feature available on smart TVs as well. I have a Samsung TV and a Vizio TV with Plex but the watch together feature isn’t available. I am able to watch it on my fire TV stick only.

Watch together feature is not available on my 65" Samsung smart TV.

So, as an attempted workaround, I got a Watch Together session going on my phone and then tried to cast to the TV, but Watch together won’t allow casting to be done concurrently. I tried casting first and then joining the watch together session, but then Plex forces a casting disconnect from the TV .

Why give us a feature that doesn’t work in the app on our TVs? Maybe I’m just cranky today, but this has really bothered me. I mean, at least let us be able to cast it?

Please, I’m begging you Plex team, can you get onto this? I will be very grateful.
