Any thoughts on an alternative device to stream through Plex? I have an LG tv I guess I can use 🤷🏼‍♀️

AppleTV with the Infuse app.

Blows everything else away. It will connect to Plex and Jellyfin servers. Or a standard SMB folder share if you prefer. No ads. It never lags. Has reliable frame rate matching. And you’re likely to get 5+ years of software update support.

The only thing it won’t do is Atmos from Bluray rips (it will do lossless 7.1 but not the atmos layer). If you need that, then get an Nvidia Shield Pro.

Why Infuse and not the native Plex app?

Better support for Dolby Vision. I also prefer the Infuse UI.
