# plex-tui

plex-tui is a terminal Plex client for browsing and watching media.

It is built around a quiet three-pane interface: libraries on the left, artwork
and media selection in the center, and playback context on the right. The app is
keyboard-first, media-first, and designed for choosing something to watch
without leaving the terminal.

Plex, from the terminal.

[Watch the showcase](https://plex-tui.so1omon.app) or install from your package
channel:

```bash
brew trust --tap so1omon563/plex-tui
brew tap so1omon563/plex-tui
brew install plex-tui
plex-tui --smoke
```

## What It Feels Like

plex-tui is not a server administration tool and it is not a retro terminal
novelty. It treats the terminal as a modern application surface: structured,
calm, and direct.

Real media gets real artwork. Details unfold only when they help the decision.
The footer keeps common actions close, while the full keyboard reference stays
in Help.

## Screenshots

Three surfaces carry the shape of the app: the main movie grid, personalized
Continue Watching state, and first-class TV browsing.

### Movies: the primary browsing surface

Poster artwork carries the page. The selected item gains just enough metadata
and action context to make the next choice clear.

### Continue Watching: Plex state at the front

In-progress media opens from Plex playback state, with resume progress and
direct playback actions visible without changing modes.

### TV Shows: shows, seasons, and episodes

TV libraries use the same browsing rhythm as movies while keeping show context
clear as you move into seasons and episodes.

## What It Does

1. Browse Plex libraries through a focused terminal interface.
2. Navigate with explicit keyboard flows.
3. Launch playback through `mpv` while Plex remains the source.
4. Keep diagnostics near the running app.
5. Fit macOS and Linux terminal habits.

## Install

plex-tui requires Python 3.11 or newer, a Plex account/server, and `mpv` for
playback.

### Homebrew

```bash
brew trust --tap so1omon563/plex-tui
brew tap so1omon563/plex-tui
brew install plex-tui
plex-tui --smoke
```

The Homebrew formula installs `mpv` automatically.

### PyPI

```bash
pipx install plex-tui
plex-tui --smoke
plex-tui
```

This is the recommended cross-platform Python install path. Install `mpv`
separately with your platform package manager.

### Arch Linux

```bash
paru -S plex-tui
plex-tui --smoke
```

Any AUR helper can be used; `paru` is only an example.

### From GitHub

```bash
pipx install "git+https://github.com/so1omon563/plex-tui.git"
pipx install "git+https://github.com/so1omon563/plex-tui.git@v0.13.6"
```

Use this path when testing `main` or a tagged release before it reaches your
preferred package channel.

## First Run

Launch `plex-tui` and follow the Plex browser login. The app saves the selected
server connection and token in the platform config directory.

Useful checks:

```bash
plex-tui --version
plex-tui --smoke
plex-tui --diagnostics
plex-tui --config-path
```

Read the [User Guide](docs/user-guide.md) for configuration, playback,
keyboard shortcuts, artwork modes, diagnostics, and CLI helper commands.

## Current Surface

- Plex browser login, server selection, and Plex Home profile switching.
- Library-first sidebar with Continue Watching, Playlists, normal library browsing, and a Plex Services row for optional Discover, On Plex, and categorized non-DRM Live TV features.
- Movie, show, season, episode, collection, category, hub, and playlist views.
- Poster artwork in grid view, with Kitty/Ghostty native image support when
  available and block art elsewhere.
- Current-library search, global Plex search, and read-only CLI helpers.
- External `mpv` playback with play-from-start, resume, optimized transcode,
  progress reporting, watched state, and active pause/seek/stop controls.
- Audio and subtitle preference pickers with saved defaults.
- Settings for stream preferences, playback display, artwork, grid density,
  library visibility/order, optional sidebar entries, and diagnostics.
