This is a very simple Chrome extension. It makes it easier to download media from Plex servers.

For now, you have to install it manually. Browse to chrome://extensions/ and click "Developer mode" in the top right. Now click "Load unpacked extension…" and select the extension’s directory. You should now see your extension in the list.

Operation

  1. Open the Plex web UI
  2. Find what you want to download. The following types of media are supported: (1) TV shows, (2) TV seasons, (3) TV episodes, and (4) Movies
  3. Click the extension icon to the right of the address bar
  4. A new tab will open with one or more links
  5. Download these links any way you want. What I usually do is a. Copy the links into a text file (e.g. files.txt) b. Run wget --content-disposition -i files.txt
