Use Jellyfin. Fill your server with treasures procured from the high seas. Watch on any device. Sync play with far away friends or family.
I tried jellyfin for about a month last year, but it lacked a lot of what I was used to in plex, so I returned to it. But lately plex is really going downhill... has jellyfin improved somewhat in this time frame?
What features? I have both and I vastly prefer Jellyfin. Plex is slow and the menus dont get right to the point.
That is true. I also hate having to change each episode separatedly to change subtitle/audio track. Apropos, jellyfin didn't have subtiles download integrated on their menus, has that changed since last year? Not having that means manually downloading and syncronizing subtitles, and life's too short for that kind of drudgery
Jellyfin has a plug in for open subtitles. I think all my media already has subtitles so I don't need to download them.
