| Option | Values | Info |
|---|---|---|
| Enabled | On/Off | Sets if the Plex module should display in the main module list when you start 240-MP. |
| Libraries | Dynamic (based on the connected server) | Allows you to select which libraries you would like to display when browsing the connected server. |
| Video Quality | Direct Playback and Transcoding Options | Direct playback will stream the video direct from your server to your device. On a Raspberry Pi 4 I've had success with 1080p HEVC files but depending on bitrate your mileage may vary. If you are trying to watch video that a Raspberry Pi can't natively decode then you can use this option to have your connected server transcode the content before sending to the Raspberry Pi for playback. |
| Resume Playback | Ask/Always |
Ask will present you with an option to restart playback or resume and Always will resume without asking. |
| Auto Play Next Episode | On/Off | Defaults to off, if turned on it will auto play the next episode from a given season until the end of a season |
| Sign Out | -- | Signs you out of Jellyfin and deauthorizes 240-MP from your connected server. When you open the Jellyfin module you will be asked to connect to a server again. |
