Plex Lyrics PiP troch Steven Partridge

Plex Lyrics PiP turns Plex Web into a compact, touch-friendly music controller with lyrics in a Picture-in-Picture window.

Open it using the Lyrics PiP button added to Plex Web. The extension uses the lyrics, artwork, metadata, playback state, volume, and ratings already available in your Plex session—no separate lyrics provider required.

• Synced lyrics that follow the current line and scroll smoothly during playback.
• Support for both timed and plain lyrics supplied by Plex.
• Clickable timed lyric lines for quickly seeking through a song.
• Previous, play/pause, next, and progress controls.
• Track title, artist, album, elapsed time, and duration.
• Album artwork integrated into the controller background.
• A dedicated volume slider with mute control.
• An inline five-star rating control with half-star support.
• A compact controller-only mode that hides the lyrics.
• Automatic resizing when lyrics are hidden or restored.
• Adjustable lyric text size using the A− and A+ controls.
• Clear messages when lyrics are unavailable or Plex cannot load them.
• Automatic lyric reset when the current track changes.
• A responsive, touch-first layout designed for both compact and expanded PiP sizes.

The extension remembers your expanded PiP size, lyric text size, and whether lyrics were last shown or hidden.

Plex’s lyrics panel is kept open only while the PiP window is active, including when using controller-only mode. Closing PiP restores normal Plex behavior.


Plex Lyrics PiP does not fetch lyrics from external services, run analytics, or collect listening data. Lyrics, artwork, metadata, and playback information come directly from your open Plex Web session. Ratings are submitted through Plex Web’s existing controls.

The extension is limited to https://app.plex.tv/*. Its toolbar icon is passive; there is no popup or background keep-open mode.
