Since they are keeping support (for now) in the WebUI, that means the server binaries should still support it for older clients.
Looks like its time to block the Plex app from updating so we can’t get these new “features”.

There are some instructions in here for the desktop clients, not sure how this would be done on a smart TV though…
Also be sure to grab a copy of the downloads currently available, as Plex will likely remove them when this new update pushes out.
It’s not a permanent solution, but it should be enough to buy some time while we all look for alternative platforms.
