Stream Cloud Movies with Plex & RcloneView — Mount Google Drive, Dropbox, or S3 as Your Library

Out of disk? Mount your cloud as a local drive with RcloneView and let Plex stream directly from it—smoothly, reliably, and without command‑line setup.

Plex is fantastic at organizing and streaming your media, but local storage fills up fast. Meanwhile, cloud buckets—Google Drive, Dropbox, Wasabi, Cloudflare R2, S3—offer cheap, virtually unlimited space. The missing piece is a clean way to make Plex “see” those cloud folders like a local path. Rclone’s mount command solves it, and RcloneView wraps that power in a simple GUI: pick a cloud folder, choose a drive letter or mount path, enable caching, and go. No terminal, no flags to memorize.

One clean dashboard for all your clouds—browse, compare, transfer, and automate without the command line.

Cloud storage sprawl is real. Personal Gmail + a work Google account, a OneDrive tied to Microsoft 365, a legacy Dropbox you still share with a vendor, and an S3 bucket for archives. Logging in and out of different portals wastes time and makes it easy to lose track of what lives where. RcloneView solves that by bringing every account into a single, visual explorer powered by rclone—so you can move confidently between providers with previews, dry-runs, and scheduled jobs.

Keep your sensitive files safe—even in the cloud. With RcloneView, you can encrypt and manage your cloud backups visually using rclone’s crypt backend, ensuring complete privacy for Google Drive, OneDrive, S3, and more—no scripting needed.

Why encrypt your cloud backups?

Cloud storage is convenient and reliable, but your files still live on someone else’s servers. Without encryption, service providers (or anyone who gains access to your account) could read your data.

Encrypting your cloud backups gives you true ownership of your information—only you hold the decryption key.

Stop juggling tabs and logins. With RcloneView, you can connect Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive into one simple, powerful desktop app—preview, sync, and organize all your files visually, without touching the command line.

Why unify your cloud drives?

Most professionals today store files across multiple platforms—team docs in Google Drive, shared folders in Dropbox, and personal files in OneDrive. Switching between tabs or apps breaks focus and makes data management cumbersome.

RcloneView brings these clouds together into one pane of glass, giving you total visibility and control over your files—regardless of where they live.

Keep privacy and productivity in the same workflow. Use RcloneView to sync and back up files between Proton Drive and popular clouds like Google Drive, OneDrive, and Amazon S3—without touching the terminal.

Why connect Proton Drive with other clouds

Data rarely lives in one place. Teams co-edit in Google Drive or OneDrive, developers and IT stash archives in Amazon S3, and privacy-minded users protect sensitive folders in Proton Drive. Bridging these services lets you keep the right data in the right place—while avoiding copy-paste chaos.

Keep a local safety copy and take control of your data. Mirror your cloud drives to a Synology NAS with a clean, point-and-click workflow—no command line required.

Cloud to NAS, the smart way—why it matters

Cloud storage is convenient for collaboration and access anywhere. But keeping a second, on-premises copy on a Synology NAS gives you versioned backups, LAN-speed restores, and independence from any single provider. With RcloneView, you can connect popular cloud services (e.g., Google Drive, OneDrive, and more supported by rclone) and your NAS, then preview, copy, and schedule jobs from one screen.

Consolidate your storage and simplify collaboration by moving data from Dropbox to OneDrive—all inside a clean, point-and-click interface.

Introduction — When a Dropbox → OneDrive move makes sense

Teams and individuals often start in Dropbox for its simplicity and cross-platform sync, then adopt Microsoft 365 and OneDrive for tighter Office/Teams integration and centralized IT management. Moving content between them helps you keep projects in one place, reduce context-switching, and standardize permissions and governance.
