Thanks. I did miss that one. I was looking for a "Add to this collection" button inside a selected collection.

However I'm not sure if this collection is visible only to a user that created it, or an admin has to create it and it is visible to everyone?

Thanks. It looks like Plex does have more user friendly features, but still no info about relations. That's a bummer.

It is really important to know the watch order (even if I had to specify it manually). When I think about it, Jellyfin probably fails even for the simplest watch orders like The Lord of the Rings; not to mention Stargate (Movie 1 -> Show -> Movie 2+3).

Maybe I have missed it somewhere? The UI is pretty confusing.

I never had the chance to try Plex, but how does it compare to Jellyfin? What kind of features does Plex have and Jellyfin does not and vice versa?

Examples of basic features I'm missing in Jellyfin:

  • Create a user-defined collection (like group of favourite movies)
  • Adding user-defined tags
  • Filtering by tags or any meaningful filtering
  • Filtering by languages (however this could be done by using combination of 2 different plugins that add tags and create collections)
  • [Important] No movie/show relations (e.g. The Lord of the Rings 1 -> 2 -> 3)
  • No way to know if movie/show belongs to any collection

I'm really glad that me and my friends decided to build new PCs the second we saw the first rise in RAM prices. It would have been hard to survive this on our 7-10 years old builds.
