OK,

I have now the plexmediaserver version I want

PlexMediaServer-1.7.6.4058-8fa494d15-freebsd-amd64.tar.bz2 (Version 1.7.5.4035 is installed by the plugin)

and I can transfer it to my jail, but where and how would I install/downgrade it?

Sorry guys, but it takes some time until I have a better understanding of FreeBSD and jails ;-)

How is changing from a lower version to a higher version "downgrading"? That's what we usually call an upgrade.

If you want to mess with upgrading the version of Plex in the plugin, look at this handy script.

I know what downgrading is :smile: however, I installed
Code:
pkg install plexmediaserver-plexpass
in a jail and that works now just fine ;-)

If I do a system update and there would be a new version available, would it update the jail or do I have to update the jail manually?

Then why did you ask about going from a lower version to a higher version, and call it downgrading?
pkg install plexmediaserver-plexpass

It should. It's also completely different that what you asked about last night.
If I do a system update and there would be a new version available, would it update the jail
No, jails aren't affected by system updates. You'd need to upgrade the jail manually. pkg upgrade would be the command.
