Media server

Plex

Streaming media server

Plex turns organized media folders into polished libraries for your devices and users.

What It Does

Scans movies, shows, music, and libraries into a client-friendly catalog.
Handles playback, metadata presentation, and remote-client access patterns.
Can run natively or near a Docker-managed automation stack.

How Stackarr Fits

Stackarr is designed around practical Plex installs: it can support native media-server paths, direct service links, Plex-aware backup modes, request workflows, and the automation services around the library. The Home performance charts use Plex resource history directly when it is available.
