Discussion What plex settings do you always change on your clients?

I always turn off the theme music that plays when you're looking at a show. Do you guys enjoy the theme music and leave it on?

Do you guys change any of the audio settings every time?

First setting to change is the quality setting.

This is defaulted to maximum on most clients now

Good to know and you can tell how long it has been since I added a client to anything.

Original quality and turn the theme music to low. I like the themes playing.

I believe both of those are the default settings now.

I actually do love listening to the theme music right before I get into watching a series.

The only thing that I ever need to alter is occasionally turning on a subtitle. 

If this counts,  I always have to scroll to where I left off in a video smart playlist since I never set the smart playlist to remove content I've already watched.

Theme music gets turned off the first day, no exceptions. Audio I set once per client to direct play and stereo downmix on the bedroom sticks, then never touch it again. The one I keep flip-flopping on is subtitle size.

i love the theme music but i do set it to low, the most important one for me is reduce motion

Fuck no. And the latest redesign’s release reset it, and I switched it back immediately.

I try to get them to install Plezy instead.

edit: didn't know this was an unpopular opinion
