This is the first thing I noticed when I started using this new launcher.
Several plex / Jelly / etc. servers should be all activated at once, and all available, and duplicate entries needs to be merged using their TMDB IDs.
Once the user selected a movie / TV show, then a popup appears and displays the servers from which the content has to be played.
Cherry on the cake would be to display the available sound tracks / subs / and resolution (just like when you use the usual plex UI actually)
last but not least, the "continue watching" section at the top of the launcher should contain the played content of any of the activated servers.
Once this will be made available, I'm quite sure you'll get a TON of subbers.
Now I can see one possible issue with this method, if someone doesn't use radarr / sonarr to put the right TMDB Ids on their content, then duplicates will appear. Therefore, content with missin TMDB ID could optionnally be hidden.

Multi-server support is intentionally disabled then due to duplication?
I think the input so far is referring to multi local server support. I am actually after my server and a shared server so I can see all my continue watching list from Plex on the launcher.
Right now I have to pick mine or my friends, not both.

I have a 4k server and a 1080p I have different content on both so having a single server makes it hard to justify.

I was going to make a new post but I'll piggyback onto this thread and add some more detail.

This isn't really a Dispatch issue, more so Plex. For that reason it's more of a request that a bug fix.
Right now, If there are more than 1 version of a TV Show / Movie in separate libraries the Up Next row will show duplicate entries.
The only solution right now is to disable 1 of the libraries. For example I have a separate library for 4k and HD TV and Movies. I have the 4k folder disabled to prevent duplicate items
Ideally if the user can select quality when the play button is pressed.

Sunnydubz: I actually have both the request in the title and the one made in this comment tracked as one issue internally. Multi server and library duplicates will be handled in a post v1 release.
