Lifetime Pass Member… just put on The Devils Advocate (1997) and got a full 30s ad.

… just paused it to verify it was actually in my library… -and got another 2 ads… what the actual fuck? Just me?

EDIT: Looking back at the app, seems I was somehow in Plex Streaming, but how it was put up above my own content I can’t understand, and the movie page does not make it obvious that’s what I’m looking at.

    Devil’s Advocate is free on Plex on demand, which is ad supported. Somehow you played that version and not your local one.

      This is absolutely what happened and yet there are plenty of comments in here just going along with it.

          Yeah this is where I come down on this.

          I’ve been using plex for years… how is it possible that I made this mistake?
