FAQ

Q. How does it generates a recommendation playlist?

A. It based on what the user have watched to calcuate his preferences and find the unwatch series / movies match most.

Q. How is it different from Plex's "Related"

A. Plex's "Related" heavily flavor actors over gernes which is stupid in my opinion. How does an action movie related to a romance movie just because they have some common actors?
