I'm really glad that you made this video. Simply because, I have one problem with this feature.

I love the feature itself. I use it in my home theater, and it truly sets the vibe for the atmosphere. I only wish the trailers, and pre-roll bumper would load in the background. This way, we wouldn't have to see those loading screens after every trailer. Thus, seeing it play all the way through would be a major upgrade in my opinion.

P.S. I really hope you read this 😁

After a year I found out that you used my preroll in your video and you like it, I appreciate that!

I want to leave this comment to say thank you for your help. I was trying to get Nicole Kidman's ad for AMC to play before every movie and thanks to your concise instructions now I can relive history with each movie I watch!

After you uploaded this I immediatly setup a pre-roll for my plex server. It works flawless and looks pretty cool. Thanks alot, would like to see more quick tips like these.

Cool. I download a few pre rolls and did this. I'll have to change it up occasionally, but this really adds to the home experience. Thanks.

I like the idea of a series like this, and I also like the name "Plex Bits". I'd like to see "Bits" series for other topics you cover as well. Looking forward to more.

I think the mini series is a great idea, who doesn't love the idea of customizing their pride and joy?

Thanks for this I am always looking at the Plex forum and Reddit as I find it very interesting to see what others do.

IDK what I am doing wrong? I've downloaded the mp4 as linked above. Placed it in the same location where my media library folders are stored, went into my server settings to add the location and make sure player had 1 trailer. Still no success. At first I thought it was the file name not having .mp4 so I added it and still nothing.

That’s really neat. I might have to play with this.

The preroll path is best if there are no spaces or if there is special char in the file name. Also Note you have string your prerolls out, if you separate by comma they play all in a row, if by semicolon then it randomly picks between the list. you can not have a combination at the time of this posing with version .11.1.4730, so you can't get two play together and it randomly pick between sets.

Loving the concept of Plex Bits. This is a little off topic but I wish the recommend feature in Plex was more useful. I think it's a huge feature that Plex needs to upgrade, to allow users to "recommend" movies or TV shows with each other.

I love this idea of Plex Tips.

Here are some ideas on what I am struggling with.

1. How to navigate forums
2. Music genres
3. Audiobooks
4. Picture upload and organize
5. Adding customized art for movie/tv art
5. How to master playlists. Shows like arrow, super girl and the flash have crossover episodes. It is difficult to look at the dates of each show and putting them in order.

Seems as though Plex has a time-out time for prerolls, so my server skips this every time and I don’t get to see my custom preroll. Any way to force it to not skip?

I wish the HUD controls wouldn't pop-up after the pre-roll. Would be nice to have one smooth transition between pre-roll and feature presentation
