dipping into plex, using friends plex server to stream to my local monster 3080GTX laptop... i want upscaling from his 720p videos...
You could also use something like https://github.com/iwalton3/plex-mpv-shim
- Is there a way to use Plex with another player like VLC or MadVR?

Plex IS getting worse and Im getting frustrated!
My best client experience is nvidia shield, and using plex-shim-mpv. It uses mpv as the client and supports every format I watch, specifically ASS subtitles for anime get direct played.
-
HDR on Plex windows client washed out
I found this thread: https://github.com/iwalton3/plex-mpv-shim/issues/31 It seems that changing the config to use http (insecured connection) may solve this issue. I have remote access enabled and I'm signed in to the Plex server, so maybe that's why I didn't have those issues.

Movie not filling the entire screen?
I just don't worry about it until I try and watch the movie and it has black bars, then I just use plex-mpv-shim to watch it, and handbrake it after.
- Plex Media Player for Linux abandoned... what to do?

Why does Plex still have no Linux support?
Have you tried this? I use it all the time when watching stuff on Plex. It direct plays every thing I have minus 4K. Note it doesn’t offer the Plex gui. Instead I used my phone to find what I wanted using the Plex app and then cast it to the player

having issues with video, Manjaro KDE
The plex experience in a browser was never great for me, whether it was transcoding or subtitles. Once I started using plex-mpv-shim, all those problems went away and it's a fast and seamless experience with directplay every time.

YouTube-dl has been taken down
I see. According to the Web Archive, this website stopped working all the way in November 2023, and http://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/ now contains all the same content as the old one and is the new "official" website.

YouTube-dl fork with additional features and fixes
See elsewhere in the thread for details, but youtube-dl was restored by Github and is generally not considered to be in violation of the DMCA. You can see it on Github here: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
A copyright holder abused the DMCA process to take it down the first time.

Ask HN: What's the Situation with YouTube-Dl?
The best way is to download the source from github, run `make`, and copy the the file to $HOME/bin . There hasn't been a release for about a year now and the files on the distro repos are even older (I think).
Also YouTube has been doing some changes lately on the the player and a lot of the tools fail to download audio or video.
For example, in the last couple of weeks there have been some issues with a redirect to a 'consent page' : https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/32499
