Release v0.10.0 — automatic intro skipping, yellow subtitles, Next and Previous episodes, Play Version, a player HUD you can replace, and ASS we can · GLinnik21/plx-native

This release lets you choose, install and replace the player's on-screen controls, adds Play Version, playback speed and automatic intro skipping, redesigns Home so what you were watching is one press away, and plays far more audio formats by decoding them in the app. It also adds Russian, Polish, Dutch and Catalan, draws Arabic and Hebrew, and fixes a long list of seeks and resumes that hung. It is the first release since 0.9.0, which was cut on 2026-10-23.

What's new

A player HUD you can choose and replace. Settings → Video & playback → Player HUD lists the built-in HUD and any installed HUD packages, per profile. Browse HUDs opens a gallery of published HUDs with a preview and separate Install and Use buttons; a package can also be installed from the HUD folder on the television or from an address. The built-in HUD is now itself a package drawn by the same renderer, so Chapters and Info are sections of it, a More fold holds the rest, and menus open next to the control that opened them. How packages work, and what a package may not do, is in HUD plugins. HUDs for the gallery are made and submitted in a separate repository, plxnative-huds, not in this one; its authoring guide is the place to start.
Play Version. A movie or episode with two or more versions on the server gets a Play Version row in its menu and a disc after Play on its page; a row plays that version. Thanks to aulonm.
Playback speed. The player's … menu has a Playback speed row with 0.5×, 0.75×, 1.25×, 1.5×, 1.75× and 2× beside Normal. The speed is applied in the app, not by the television, and a speed the set cannot play is not offered. Thanks to dimitrije83.
Skip intros and credits automatically. For a viewer with Plex Pass, Settings → Video & playback has per-profile Skip intros and Skip credits choices of Manual, Disabled or Automatic. Automatic skipping waits five seconds of actual playback. On the timed prompt the filled button is the action the countdown performs (Skip Intro, or Next Episode after credits), pressing it does that now, and a separate Watch Intro or Watch Credits button beside it cancels the countdown; focus starts on the filled one. The choice is hidden when your plex.tv account does not offer the markers, and a Plex Pass held by the viewer now counts (danzig666). A managed Home profile, which has no Plex Pass of its own, takes its Home administrator's. The two Settings rows and an automatic offer no longer blink away for a moment every few minutes.
Next and Previous, and tap seeking. An episode with an episode before or after it gets Previous and Next buttons in the control row. A tap on fast-forward or rewind jumps one Skip interval with the controls left hidden, quick taps add up, and a hold still scrubs. A per-profile Instant D-pad seeking option lets Left and Right jump without showing the controls first. Thanks to stefan-ovezea.
When it will finish. The player's HUD shows the local time the film or episode ends at; the Estimated end time switch on the Player HUD settings page is offered only while the HUD in use has room for it (a HUD package declares that in format 1.1). Thanks to seergi893.
More audio plays directly. FLAC, ALAC and integer PCM are decoded in the app and sent to the television as PCM; stereo files above 48 kHz are resampled by the app instead of being re-encoded lossily by the server. Opus direct-plays on sets that can take it. A DTS core is decoded to stereo where the set has no DTS decoder, but only under Force Direct Play for one- and two-channel tracks, and as the last step in Auto after the server has refused to convert a refused file; a surround DTS file is otherwise still converted by the server. Audio the app decodes is delayed to line up with the picture; that was timed on the development set, with speakers and with Bluetooth, and the other LG audio stacks use values read from firmware that nobody has timed. Surround is not mixed down to stereo by default. Thanks to paulorichards and Dr-Amp.
A redesigned Home: pick up where you left off at a glance. Continue Watching sits right under the hero, one press away instead of a scroll down. On Home and on Recommended, each tile is a wide 16:9 picture with cover art, a one-line footer with an episode label and time left, and a play glyph on focus. The Home hero shows playback progress in its Resume pill and, for every movie, show and episode, a line with the type, year, length, genres and age rating, whether or not you have started it. Its page dots sit inside the page and slide with it, the Play pill's tint follows the page that is arriving instead of popping, the background wash stays steady through a quick run of page flips, and a title drawn in type rather than as a logo now keeps the same gap above that line. A fullscreen autoplay trailer on a Detail page shows its clock and can be sought.
Library, reorganised around the sort. The Library header's sort control carries the current sort, the poster captions can show the sort's value, and the A-Z rail on the right now follows the other sorts too: rating, duration, unplayed, plays, date added, date viewed, last episode added and release year. A TV library's Seasons and Episodes views get the rail as well. The library list and Favorite libraries live in the Library options menu, and Sort & Filter holds only sorting and filtering. A Library remembers whether you left it on Recommended or Collections, per profile. Thanks to MozgOFF and isaymon.
Settings, redesigned. The root is four groups (Libraries, Playback, System, Support) with a sentence about the focused row, and Diagnostics is one row that opens its own page. Under posters now lets you tick up to four details per kind (movies: year, length, genre, video quality, age rating, score; shows: year, seasons, genre, age rating, score) with a two-poster preview. Favorite libraries shows its preview as soon as you open it, and the Player HUD page previews the HUD you have focused.
Dolby Vision Auto or Off, per profile. Settings → Video & playback has a Dolby Vision setting for sets whose firmware misreports it and for viewers who prefer HDR10. With Off, a Profile 8.1 file plays its HDR10 base. Thanks to MozgOFF.
A Playback engine setting. Settings → Video & playback → Playback engine has Standard (the default, exactly as before) and Experimental, which lets the television stream a file itself while the app's controls stay. If it fails the video restarts in Standard, and videos with subtitles, videos the server converts and videos the set cannot play as they are always use Standard. On webOS 5 and newer the list of sets it may drive ships empty in this release, so Experimental does not yet change how a video plays there.
Go to Show. An episode's page has a Go to Show disc that opens the show's season list. Thanks to LovelessCodes.
A Yellow subtitle color. Settings → Audio & subtitles → Look has a Subtitle color row beside Size and Position, and the same choice is under Color in the player's Subtitles menu: White (as before), Yellow, or one of five grays that only dim. Yellow colors text subtitles (SubRip, WebVTT and the other text formats) and the white text of styled ASS and SSA subtitles, including a SubRip file the server converts to ASS; a cue's own other colors are kept. Picture subtitles (PGS, VobSub) never take it, and where the subtitle on screen cannot take a color the Yellow choice is dimmed with the reason instead of looking selected. The cost: signs and other on-screen text a styled subtitle draws in white also turn yellow. The panel and HDR look of the yellow has not been checked on a television.
Four new interface languages, and Arabic and Hebrew drawn properly. Russian (isaymon), Polish (rawinek), Dutch (BamischijfNL) and Catalan (seergi893), alongside the eight from 0.9.0. Titles, summaries, cast names and menus in Arabic and Hebrew were boxes; they are now shaped and in reading order (Goo6i).
Plex's own stops are honoured. When a server stops your playback, for example from the Plex dashboard, the player shows the server's reason and Back leaves. Thanks to PilaScat.
A version the television can decode plays by default. When Plex lists a 4K copy first that the set cannot decode, Play and Resume now pick the best version the set can decode instead of having the server convert the 4K copy. Thanks to PilaScat.
Magic Remote. Pointing at the edges of the screen scrolls, rows glide sideways, and a hover never moves the page. Thanks to danzig666.

Fixed

A Dolby Vision film that hung on Buffering after a resume or seek now plays the HDR10 base layer when the resume point lands on a CRA picture. That picture was not measured on a set running platform release 5.5, and the reporter has not retested (issue #1166).
Seeking in some Blu-ray remuxes never finished. Their later seek points are ordinary I-frames, which the player now accepts. Thanks to danzig666.
An MPEG-TS stream with a .mp4 name hung on Loading. It now direct-plays, which has not been confirmed on a television or on the reporter's file (issue #1084).
Pause then Play late in an automatic-quality stream could never resume, and (issue #1216), and an automatic upgrade that lost its lease could end the stream that was already playing (issue #954).
A seek that reloads, or that never reached the video, left the picture on the old position. Seeks on a transcode, a retranscode and an HTTP/2 stream are recovered, and Back saves the position you asked for. Thanks to Psychotonikum, fraygox and tiper.
Up Next showed another server's episode details over the right video when two servers used the same item number (issue #1280).
A retired streaming session stayed in the Plex dashboard as an extra playback (issue #1236). How often a stream switches sessions is not changed.
Leaving an episode for the next one from its credits left it unwatched. It is now marked watched (tiper).
A new play could freeze the interface forever when LG's Unload on the previous one never returned; it now fails with a message after 10 seconds. A crash on exit from the TLS library's cleanup, seen in opt-in crash reports, is fixed.
Magic Remote Back and pointer recovery after the player's controls closed: Back hides the pointer, and a second Back leaves playback (issue #811).
Pages that blinked or blanked: poster tiles blinking after a page closed, a Person page blanked by a refreshed server list, Detail pages jumping back after a cast page, and the Library grid not refreshing after a server change. Thanks to tiper.
Sound on a converted remux disappeared for long stretches. On a 4K film switched mid-film to a TrueHD track the set cannot decode, the server's remux carried the audio but about 75 seconds of it was thrown away inside the app; it is now played, and the check that threw it away only runs until audio has started.
A remote film with Automatic quality started at 720 kbps when the server's remux answered the bandwidth probe in a way the probe refused, even if the connection had room for the original.
A version you chose with Play Version could be re-encoded at a quality choice it fitted, because its own bitrate was not read.
Opening the Library straight onto Collections or Recommended now puts focus on the first tile instead of leaving it on the top bar. A related symptom, a flash of the old layout when going Back to the grid, could not be reproduced here and has not been changed; neither has been seen on a television.
A set with four cores and 2 GiB of memory decodes posters with three workers instead of two.
ASS we can. Styled ASS and SSA subtitles with embedded fonts and heavy karaoke, such as anime openings, now use the fonts attached to the file, animate on every video frame instead of a few times a second, and a translucent sign over the picture is no longer drawn dark; this was measured with a test file on the development set, not with the reporter's file (issue #1328). Thanks to josmellop.
Previous now always goes to the previous episode. Five seconds into an episode the button used to restart it, which rewound the progress Plex had saved for it, and before that it was dimmed, because an episode started from Continue Watching or a page had no earlier episode in its queue. The queue is now built from the show, so the earlier episodes are in it, and Restart is no longer a button face; From beginning on the player's Info tab (and in the … menu of a HUD that lists it) starts the episode over. The show-based queue was seen working against one real server; a server that does not answer it as expected leaves the queue as before, with Previous dimmed on that episode.

Changed

Continue Watching now asks Plex's catalog for cover art. For each title in a Continue Watching row, the app asks discover.provider.plex.tv for its cover art with the title's Plex catalog identifier, the app's language and client identifier and, when the profile has one, its Plex account token, so Plex learns which titles are in that row. It is on whenever that row shows stills and has no setting; the details are in the privacy policy.
The Player HUD gallery contacts huds.plxnative.com, a host this project runs, to read its signed list of HUDs, and fetches previews without credentials; the list refreshes at most daily.
Installed HUD packages are stored outside the app's own folder. They go in /media/developer/com.beb.plxnative-huds on a Developer Mode television, or the first of a few other locations the app can write to (/media/internal/.com.beb.plxnative-huds, then a private folder under /media/developer/temp, then /tmp, which a restart clears), and a package copied into that folder is offered for install. A package is a declarative description with SVG masks, not code, and the app checks it before drawing it; one installed from an address is fetched from a public host, and trust is shown beside each package. The first location survives a reinstall.
Crash reports carry more, only if you turned them on. They now name the crashing thread and the phase of an exit, firmware-library crashes group by module and offset, and a playback refusal the app recovered from is reported once under the error-report choice, with the firmware build.
Settings has a new layout. Rows moved under four groups; nothing was removed.
Library navigation and Sort & Filter are separate. Favorite libraries stay directly selectable on the header, a library you opened that is not a favourite shows as one temporary pill, and library options (hidden libraries, refreshing shared libraries, editing favourites) have their own menu.
Seeking shows the loading sign until the seek lands. While you scrub, the transport keeps its rewind and fast-forward arrows; once a seek is committed (a tap, a chapter jump or the end of a scrub) it shows the loading sign until the picture is there, then the play or pause mark.
A managed Home profile's Skip choices read its Home administrator's plex.tv feature list. With the account's own sign-in, the app asks plex.tv, which it already talks to, for the administrator's account details and features, only to see whether the administrator has Plex Pass; nothing is written there, and the managed profile's own answer is never replaced. It happens only when the profile's own answer lacks a grant, and each read's outcome is one line in the event log, which stays on the television unless you send diagnostics. The details are in the privacy policy.
The event log says why Experimental did not take a play. With Playback engine set to Experimental, a play that stays on Standard now writes one line naming the reason; nothing is sent.
Continue Watching tiles no longer carry an amber play triangle; a white play or info glyph shows on the focused tile.

Compatibility

Plays video, verified by watching it — 2019 LG sets. One television: an LG 49SM9000PLA, which reports platform release 4.10.2 (LG markets this generation as webOS 4.5). Several changes in this version were checked on it while they were written; the audit says which, and that the release-level suites had not been run on it when this note was written.
Plays video, reported by someone else — 2025, 2022, 2019 and 2018 sets. On 2026-10-30 an owner reported sign-in, browsing, direct play, resume, seeking, HEVC or 4K and subtitles on an LG OLED55C24LA (2022, platform release 9.x) running 0.9.0, noting that Back can leave the app stuck on some pages: discussion 1167. On 2026-10-26 cremor reported sign-in, browsing, direct play, HDR or Dolby Vision, resume and subtitles on an LG OLED65C9PLA (2019, platform release 4.10.2) running 0.9.0: discussion 1071. On 2026-10-21 an owner reported playback on an LG OLED77B5PUA (2025, platform release 10.3.0) running 0.8.0: discussion 906, and on 2026-10-20 another on an LG 75UK6570AUA (2018, platform release 4.4.3) running 0.8.0: discussion 882. None of these ran 0.10.0.
Sets on webOS 3.x are outside the supported range, but some work on nightly builds. On 2026-10-20 an owner reported playback on an LG 65UJ6200-UA (2017, platform release 3.9.0) on a 0.9.0 nightly: discussion 878, and a contributor (dimitrije83) made webOS 3 seek in place through LG's own Seek call, tested only on a set reporting platform release 3.9.3. Whether this release's package starts on them has not been confirmed on one.
Starts, and nothing further is known — every other firmware from webOS 4.0 up is expected to start. This binary's libraries and symbols are checked against the firmware images webosbrew has; the result for this build is in the technical audit. That grades startup and says nothing about whether video plays.

If your set is not in the first group, tell us what happened. It working is as useful a report as it failing.

Known issues

Direct play can hang on Buffering on some webOS 5 and newer sets. Issue #1259 tracks reports from an LG OLED55B2 (platform release 9.x, issue #1096, where 0.9.0 and nightlies buffer indefinitely on H.264) and a 60UN7310 (platform release 5.x, issue #954). The causes are not confirmed to be the same, and this release carries a candidate fix for the first that nobody has confirmed on that set.
Some 2019 sets on LG's k5lp or k3lp chip, installed through Developer Mode, cannot play video. LG's sandbox can withhold a device the video path needs. The app says so instead of crashing (issue #74).
Sets on webOS 3.x are outside what is supported. Menus can drop frames at 1920x1080 and issue #862 is still open.
A crash on televisions built on LG's k6hp chip, seen only in opt-in crash reports from 0.6.6, none from 0.7.0 or later, and not reproduced (issue #174).
The subtitle timing offset is missing a minus direction (issue #1284).
Back can leave some pages stuck, reported on one 2022 set (discussion 1167) and not reproduced here.
Most of this release's new features have not been seen on a television running this release's package, in particular the HUD gallery, installing a package from an address, automatic intro skipping on a real Plex Pass account, the Playback engine setting's Experimental choice, and app-decoded audio on sets other than the development one. The new Russian, Polish, Dutch and Catalan wording has not been reviewed by us.
The Home administrator's Plex Pass for a managed profile has never been seen on a real managed account. The rule is the maintainer's choice and was built against the documented answers; a full (not managed) Home member also takes the administrator's Pass because the household list cannot tell them apart.
Yellow subtitles are unseen on a television, and have one known cost: white signs and typesetting in a styled subtitle turn yellow too, and how the yellow and its outline look on the panel and in HDR is unchecked.
Two Library symptoms were not seen to happen here: the old layout flashing when you go Back to the grid, and focus after opening straight onto Collections; the changes for them are unconfirmed on a television.
Servers behind Plex's relay, and servers that require an encrypted connection, are reached but have not been watched end to end.

Help test this release

If you have a set on webOS 5 or newer, play a direct-play film, seek in it, pause for a minute and press Play, and tell us whether it carries on. If you have a FLAC or hi-res audio file, or a stereo DTS file with Force Direct Play on, tell us whether it plays, whether the sound is in step with the picture, and what the set is connected to. If you use Plex Pass, set Settings → Video & playback → Skip intros and Skip credits to Automatic and tell us whether it skips. If you use styled (ASS or SSA) subtitles, try the Yellow subtitle color and tell us whether the text you expected to change did and the rest kept its colors. Open an issue. It working is as useful a report as it failing.
