It seems like we have been waiting for ages for an update to this plugin.
I thought it was because I was on 11.2U7 so I upgraded to 11.3U1 but that made no difference.
I am sure we used to get at least monthly plugin updates in 11.2 current plex version Version 1.19.1.2589

Good luck with that! This post may provide some clues.

You might want to consider using @danb35's Scripted Plex resource instead. It will automatically update Plex to the most current version when a new package is made available.

This has been going on for over 5 years now. Install Plex yourself so you can get the latest updates. Don't wait for someone else to do it for you.

To install Plex your create a jail, pkg install Plex and set the sysrc to auto start the service. Takes any 2min.

I see on FreshPorts that version 1.19.1.2645 has been out since April 9th, yet when I perform a pkg upgrade no newer version is found? Latest version seems to be 1.18.8.2468.

As of today you want to have plex 1.18.9.2571 installed. The 1.19.1 release was broken for Freebsd and has been marked as such in 1.19.1.2589_1. When 1.19.1.2645 gets built in about 2-3 days things will be working and you can update.

I have no clue why your system thinks only 1.18.8.2468 is the latest, that is wrong. Make sure you are on the latest builds and not quarterly builds.

I just used the FreeNAS-11.3-U2 GUI to update the plex pass plugin and now I have plex 1.19.1.2645 so I am happy to be pretty much up to date.
