The Download module allows you to download the original video files directly from any Plex Media Server that is shared with you, without needing to transcode the file at all. You are also able to download any corresponding subtitles or other local assets. You may then add these files to your own Plex Media Server for playback on any of your own devices.
Before entering this module, make sure you have selected a server to work with. Most operations will fail if you have not selected a server.
You may stop/resume a download any time, if needed. Simply click on Show Queue > Start Queue and WebTools-NG will resume where it left off.
Note: In order to use this module, the server's owner MUST grant you Download rights and you need to have an active Plex Pass.
Note: Server owners may impose a bandwidth limit in Plex Settings > Remote Access > Internet upload speed, but be aware that this may also effect the server owner's ability to stream media remotely.
Note: We recommend that you discuss the subject of bandwidth with the server owner/s before setting the Maximum bandwidth to use on the Download Settings page. If you are unable to discuss the matter, then please set the Maximum bandwidth to use to the lowest suitable setting, thanks.
