Coax beta: Play your Plex library like cable TV

Many Plex users face decision fatigue when choosing what to watch from large personal libraries. Coax is a third‑party app currently in beta that aims to solve this by offering a linear, channel‑surfing experience — playing Plex content in a continuous, TV‑like stream instead of relying on search or algorithmic recommendations.

Key points:

• Coax mimics traditional cable TV by presenting media as channels you can flip through.
• It appears to be an experimental/third‑party beta; no official Apple App Store or Google Play links were found at the time of writing.
• This concept is similar in spirit to Plex’s own Live TV and DVR features, but Coax is not an official Plex product.
