plex-viewer

If you're a fan of content streaming and like to follow various shows online, then you probably know about Plex. This online media streaming service has been in place since 2007 and has been constantly growing ever since. Now, if you'd like to have a somewhat more versatile desktop experience, plex-viewer should be the way to go, a windowed version of the same online application with a couple of added perks.

If you're happy with accessing the online version of the application, that's fine. Keep using it. You could even try the desktop application offered by the people over at Plex. On the other hand, if you'd like certain characteristics, keyboard shortcuts, and a constantly on-top window, to name a few, then give plex-viewer a look. It promises to offer quite a bit of extra features as opposed to the online version or even the official desktop counterpart.

Among these, aside from what has already been mentioned above, one can also benefit from a simpler, more condensed playback interface, have content pause when window is minimized, change window opacity or lock window in position. While you can't really say these are jaw-dropping features, one must agree that they improve the experience of users and as such can become relevant, provided that someone actually needs them.

plex-viewer seems to be an interesting way to obtain extra functionality for your online Plex media service. If you're fine without the extra functionality, then you shouldn't have a real reason to switch to this application. If you need any of the features, go ahead and make use of this application, making sure you enjoy every aspect of it.
