  • Clients just work, no matter what I have tried with the jellyfin client on android tv it always fails on first or second load up, also subtitles never quite work as smoothly as they could.

    You can download movies or tv shows from your library so you could watch them while without internet, nice for road trips or flights.

    Also I use https://trash-guides.info/ for all my setup for subtitles and no matter what I tweak they just are always a little off with jellyfin, no so with plex.


  • I just switched with this latest sale to plex from jellyfin and here is so far as to why.

    • Subtitles just work
    • Remote play is seamless
      • This includes consistent transcoding
    • Chromecast works on iOS!
    • Clients are 1000% better
    • There are clients for almost every platform
    • Skip Intro!
    • Skip Credits!
    • I can download to my device!

    To add about my server, it is a xeon 1231 v3, 32gb ram, 20tb raidz1 and a nvidia p2000 on a 200/200 fiber connection (using pfsense).



  • I run pfsense which has unbound build in which I forward to nextdns for adblocking/malware, also there server(s) are relatively close so I get under 20ms.

    For a couple other homes I manage I have unbound installed on two of the raspberry pi’s the host the controllers at their homes and just forward to nextdns under their own profile, one user uses their nextdns cli client but I plan to move them to unbound the next time I am here.
