plexmediaserver_crack

Enables Godmode, unlocking all features on (hardware transcoding, intro/credit detection, HEVC transcoding, etc..) on Plex Media Server. Including Plex Pass features without a required subscription, and including early-access/development/Plex Ninja features.

Installation

Windows

1. Download IPHLPAPI.dll from the latest release and put it in your Plex Media Server's installation folder. (e.g. C:\Program Files\Plex\Plex Media Server)
2. Restart Plex Media Server. All features will be unlocked.

Linux

x86-64 only.

Written for linuxserver/docker-plex.

Get the latest amd64 build of patchelf, extract the inner ./bin/patchelf file to your /config folder (the same one where "Library" is located). Ensure it has execute permissions.

Download plexmediaserver_crack.so from the latest release and save it somewhere. If running under Docker, /config works. Otherwise, use a directory that is readable by the user running Plex Media Server.

Execute the following commands:

docker exec -it plex ln -s /config/plexmediaserver_crack.so /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib/plexmediaserver_crack.so
docker exec -it plex /config/patchelf --remove-needed plexmediaserver_crack.so "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib/libsoci_core.so"
docker exec -it plex /config/patchelf --add-needed plexmediaserver_crack.so "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib/libsoci_core.so"

Now restart Plex Media Server. All features will be unlocked.

This will NOT persist through Docker image updates, as rebuilding the container will copy libraries freshly from the image.

For ARM64 or for a different installation method on Linux, check edde746's fork.

Building

Windows

Build using Visual Studio 2022, C++20.

Linux

linuxserver/docker-plex's image uses GLIBC 2.35, and Debian stable (bookworm, as of now) is at 2.36. Use a host with an older version to build (e.g. Debian Bullseye).

Troubleshooting

• For intro/credit detection, go to Settings -> Library -> Marker source; and select the "local detection only" option.
• If hardware transcoding (or any other feature) does not work, it should not be related to this repository. Use Google to troubleshoot why said feature doesn't work on your setup specifically.
