Overlays
Neat quality of life upgrade. Now movies will show the resolution and IMDB rating on the thumbnail.
Collections
This one is HUGE. I’ve now added collections to Plex. You can find this in your Plex Library ( “Movies” from the left, then select “Library”.
There are now collections of movies by theme, decade, genre and more! Movies that are added to Plex will get placed in the appropriate category.
BUT THE REALLY NEAT THING is that the collections can auto-request any missing content. For example, if there was a movie missing from the Star Trek collection, the missing movie would be automatically requested. Currently I have this activated for several of the categories, but not all. Activated categories include: MCU, Star Trek, Star Wars, Wizarding World, Studio Ghibli, Golden Globes, IMDB top 250, Trending Movies, Top Ten Pirated Movies (weekly), Top 10 Movies that Everyone’s Watching, 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, Oscars Best Picture, Oscars Best Cinematography, and Oscar Winners.
If you have ideas for other Collections please let me know!
This Website
This website (https://help.billflix.media) is hosted on the Plex server! I’ll build this out over time to serve as a repository of information, and a hub of links to different services offered. I’ll also try to make a blog post every now and then.
Subtitles
Another oft-requested feature is more subtitles. Well now nearly the entire library of Plex should have subtitles as an option. There are some really niche things that I just could not find subtitles for, but in general 99% of what’s on Plex should have subtitles.
Everything Else
• Improved notifications
• Hardware monitoring
• More security
• More automation
• Better quality shows
All of the above is SUPER important to the sustainability of Billflix.

I’ll go into more details in the future, but just know that I’m working very diligently to make sure we all have the best experience possible on Plex.
