There are a host of new features (https://blog.plex.tv/2015/07/07/oh-yeah-a-great-update-for-the-xbox-one-app/) coming to Plex's Xbox One app. In addition to the standard fare of navigation tweaks, added SmartGlass functionality (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/smartglass) and bug fixes, the media organizer/caster now allows users to play music throughtheir Xbone (http://www.engadget.com/2015/05/17/plex-tivo/). Plex also now offers playlist support for both songs and videos. Plus, there's no longer need to convert videos either, the service can play back video (http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/08/plex-media-server-secure-connection/) in Xbox's native MKV file format. But arguably the coolest new feature is that you'll finally get real, honest-to-goodness trailers prior to watching your films. It's as close to the theater experience you can get without having to pay for IMAX and stale popcorn.
