About

MPV Shim is a simple and lightweight Plex client, with support for Windows and Linux. Think of it

as an open source Chromecast for Plex. You can cast almost anything from Plex and it will Direct

Play. Subtitles are fully supported, and there are tools to manage them like no other Plex client.
