Info

Plexy is a command line tool to save your watching preferences in Plex.

Dubbed or Original audio, it's up to you.

  • For Dubbed preference, Plexy will auto-select the audio track with your desired language. If no audio track is found, Plexy will auto-select the subtitle track with your desired language.
  • For Original preference, Plexy will auto-select the default/original audio track and the subtitle track in your desired language.

Priorities:

  • Commentary audio tracks have lower priority when selecting audio tracks
  • Closed caption and SDH subtitle tracks also have lower priority when selecting subtitles

You can also select or exclude tracks based on their codec/format. For instance, you have a Chromecast with Google TV which doesn't support Dolby TrueHD audio codec. You can exclude this codec when saving your preferences:

>> plexy --url http://mylocalplex:32400 --token ABCDEF1234567890 preferences --language pt-BR -A truehd original

And print the full summary of changes:

>> plexy --url http://mylocalplex:32400 --token ABCDEFGHIJ1234567890 preferences -f -l en --title "The Matrix (1999)" original
Configuring watching preferences  [####################################]  100%
1 movie changed out of 1 selected movie
The Matrix (1999) changed from pt-BR: Português (SRT External) to no subtitles

You can also define your configuration options in a json or yaml file:

url: http://myplexserver:32400
token: ABCDEFGHIJ1234567890
preferences:
  library:
    - Movies
    - TV Shows
  excluded_subtitle_codec:
    - eia_608
  full_summary: True
  language: pt-BR
  watching_preference: original

By default, plexy will load config.json, config.yaml or config.yml file from the folders:

  • Mac OS: ~/Library/Preferences/plexy
  • Linux: ~/.config/plexy/
  • Windows: C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\plexy\plexy

And then update the configuration with data from plexy.json, plexy.yaml or plexy.yml in the current working directory.

You can pass the configuration to use with the --config parameter:

>> plexy --config myconfig.yml preferences
Configuring watching preferences  [####################################]  100%
1 movie changed out of 1 selected movie
The Matrix (1999) changed from pt-BR: Português (SRT External) to no subtitles

All available CLI options:

>> plexy --url <PLEX_URL> --token <USER_TOKEN> preferences --help
