# Plex MPV Shim
This project allows casting of content from a Plex server to MPV, with
minimal dependencies to prevent the project from becoming unmaintained.
This project is 1/17th the size of Plex Media Player and is all python.
Plex MPV Shim is a simple and lightweight Plex client. It supports Windows and
Linux and is easy to install. The project offers an experience similar to
Chromecast, but with direct play and subtitle support. The application requires
another app to play content and does not save login information, making it
ideal for applications where security is a concern. This project is
significantly smaller and less complicated than Plex Media Player, and is
written entirely in open-source Python.
The project supports the following:
- Direct play of HEVC mkv files with subtitles.
