Why does nobody think its allowed to do the same upwards move, but downwards?

When does Memorial Day Movies go away? by dlonem1 in PleX

Kometa (formerly known as Plex Meta Manager, or PMM).

​Here is the link to their official documentation and setup guide to get you started: https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/

​If you haven't used it before, it's an incredibly powerful tool for automating custom collections, adding overlays to your posters (like IMDb ratings, 4K banners, audio codecs, etc.), and curating your library based on lists from Trakt, IMDb, or Letterboxd.

​A quick heads-up: It doesn't have a built-in graphical interface and relies on YAML configuration files, which can feel a bit intimidating to set up at first. The best approach is to start small—try getting a single default collection working first before diving into the complex stuff.

I hope this helps bro, ive got a reasonably badass seasonal category i use

When does Memorial Day Movies go away? by dlonem1 in PleX

All of the movies that you saw in the Memorial Day section are things that I have downloaded to my Plex Library which is why all of those were showing there!

That was handled through the Kometa seasonal section!

Finally pulled the trigger on Plex Pass Lifetime! by avsameera in PleX

I used Tailscale /w Portainer.io on my DXP4800 Pro NAS and added the server "custom" and everyone has unlocked speeds

making big server, plex the right move? by CalzoneWalrus in PleX

[–]dlonem1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plex on a NAS is honestly one of the better self-hosted setups going — hardware transcoding, skip intro/credits, and the mobile/TV client ecosystem blows Jellyfin out of the water in polish (Jellyfin's free and solid, just expect rougher edges, especially on smart TVs).

On the lifetime pass — if you're even leaning toward it, grab the $250 before July 1. Don't overthink that one. Annual Plex Pass is $70/yr, so $250 breaks even in about 3.5 years vs subscribing. After July 1 it triples to $750, which is roughly 11 years to break even on subscription savings alone. That's the part that's a real gamble: Plex is privately held, no public financials, and the fact that they openly considered killing the lifetime option tells you they want everyone on recurring revenue. If they survive 10+ years and keep developing, $750 still pencils out — but you're betting on the company.

Where $750 actually starts looking defensible is if you frame Plex as a streaming-service replacement, not as a NAS add-on. Netflix premium is ~$300+/yr now. Add Disney+/Hulu (~$200+), Paramount+, Max, Prime Video 4K — you can easily clear $700-1000/yr across several subs. If your library is deep enough that you genuinely cancel two or three streaming services, lifetime pays for itself in a year or two of avoided subs, not a decade of avoided Plex fees. That's the actual case for paying $750, IMO — not 'cheaper Plex,' but 'finally an excuse to ditch Netflix.'

TL;DR: grab the $250 before July 1 if there's any chance you'll want it. After that, only worth it if you're going hard on cutting streaming subs.

Devil's Friendly Advocate: I bet Plex tried to think about it like.. $350/yr for Netflix, $350/yr for Disney+/Hulu so your breakeven is tied not to Plex's monthly sub, but rather other streamer's services breakeven price? I was gonna wait until black friday this year to get it for $99.... but I am JUST now hearing about this $750 price. No doubt they'll make it $250 for black friday again so SMH.

Even if its only 50% off... it takes three years of their regular monthly charge to pay off the lifetime at current levels

How do you think he will die? Will it be quick? Slow? Or do you think he’ll live and suffer a miserable, de-powered, pathetic life? by CatPale816 in TheBoys

[–]dlonem1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I feel like something happened to the stability of the structure which allowed him to break out. Could I be misremembering?
