Plex

Connect Plex via token auth, configure libraries, and enable watchlist, history, and ratings syncing.

Plex is a media server for your personal library. CrossWatch connects using a Plex account token (OAuth-style). No password is stored.

What it supports

• Watchlist

• Ratings

• History

CrossWatch stores your account token, not your Plex password.

Connect Plex

1. Click Connect Plex.

2. A new tab opens and asks for a PIN.

3. Copy the PIN from Link code in CrossWatch. Paste it into the Plex page.

4. After Plex accepts the PIN, close the Plex tab.

5. Back in CrossWatch, open Settings for Plex.

6. Verify these values are filled:

   • Server ID

   • Username

   • Account ID

7. Click Save.

Optional: whitelisting (libraries)

If you don’t see your libraries:

1. Click Load Libraries.

2. Pick the libraries you want CrossWatch to use.

3. Click Save.

Guide: Library Whitelisting.

Troubleshooting

• If the Plex auth tab doesn’t open, disable popup blockers for CrossWatch.

• If Plex server calls fail, make sure the PMS URL is reachable from the CrossWatch container.

• Prefer a LAN IP while debugging (example: http://192.168.1.1:32400).
