LinuxServer.io's Docker image for running the Plex Media Server in a container. It provides regularly updated builds with easy user mapping (PUID/PGID) and a consistent s6-overlay base.
Use cases
- run plex media server in docker
- self-host a plex server on my nas
- containerized plex with hardware transcoding
- keep plex media server up to date automatically
- deploy plex on unraid or home server
- run plex behind a reverse proxy in docker
When to choose
- you want a maintained, regularly updated Plex container image
- you run a LinuxServer.io-based homelab stack and want consistent base layers
- you need easy PUID/PGID permission mapping for media files
When to avoid
- you prefer the official Plex Docker image
- you don't use Docker or container runtimes
- you need to modify the Plex server itself, since this packages the closed-source binary
