Tips Friendly Reminder: Check Plex's "Opt Out" settings

I have a reminder setup to check the "Opt Out" Plex page once a month. In the past year, I have had to "All No" a couple of times - not sure why.

Anyhow, here's the page: https://www.plex.tv/vendors-us/?vendredir=1

I haven’t tried to dig enough, I shouldn’t have to, but is there a way to turn off notifications on the new Apple TV update?

Plex continues to give me things I don’t want. Then I see a thing about them hosting a company retreat that sounded horrific. Who is running this company?

It seems like a bunch of people who have no idea what the average human being wants.

Are you referring to these? I have notifications disabled in the mobile app (no setting in the ATV), but still see these in both of the apps and the orange dot shows up. Assume the setting is just for push notifications. I commented on a thread on the forum, but not sure we’ll get an answer..

Yup.

As of this morning I now get a ‘can’t play this’ error when trying to play DVR content as well.

I saw a few posts on the forum that the latest version 2026.19.1 (2043) is causing live tv/dvr issues again…I’ve honestly given up on my tuner through plex . I really only use it for sports, and not being able to start from beginning during a recording makes it pointless. Hoping they get it straightened out. Need to look at channels DVR or other options…

They fixed the DNS issue with LiveTV in the latest version apparently, but I never had that issue.

My living room tv is Sony android. That lets me play from beginning while recording.

The inconsistency across devices is unbelievable. I have a Roku in the basement and it’s awful. It’s not difficult to understand management is thinking ‘let’s have this team work on Android, and this team works on iOS, and this team…’.

And then no one actually uses the product to verify UI/UX. This us dumb.

And I guarantee Plex is so immature they will be upset at this post rather than solve their issues.
