    Audio & Subtitle Track Changer for Plex

  • You can set default audio tracks by episode and series using the 3rd party PastaTool. The only limitation is that it's set at the user level so other users will have to do their own config.

  • Exoplayer

    An extensible media player for Android

  • 3.) Plex seems to never implement their own video player or codecs. they simply use what is native to the OS/Device. For Android it uses Exoplayer. Here's the open issue for it: https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/8435

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • plex-audio-subtitle-switcher

    Change default Plex audio and subtitles for an entire series, all at once.

  • This may not be a perfect solution, but I personally use it per show for anime with .ass files and it does wonders. Allows setting which sub and audio track per season or for the whole show. https://github.com/gstacks13/plex_set_tracks

  • media-scripts

    Scripts to assist with handling media files.

  • My current approach is I use this script to set all my signs & subs tracks to forced, then set my user preferences accordingly. https://github.com/iwalton3/media-scripts/tree/master/force-signs
