Jellyfin is the way.
>>107045818>Plex Pass lifetime: From $120 to $250can't imagine paying that now lelt. grandfathered into managing dad's plex lifetime acc, always use jellyfin tho
>>107045818called it
>>107046206the white man's dream
>>107045818>April 29 2025>2025Either this is is old news or the jeets can't proofread their own blogposts which would be reason enough to move away from plex.
>>107045818psa: kodi is the only (((app))) that can render autismo subtitles and encodes correctlynot sure about metadata or making it look nice but who gives a fuck
>>107045818>starting April 29, 2025 you will no longer be able to stream your ripped movies from outside your home without paying for a subscriptionSkill issue. SSL tunnel solves this.
>>107046206>20 TBAbsolutely casual.
>>107047045It filters more casual users, which is the point.
>>107045978I literally couldnt install it on fucking debian. Why does instalation have to be so painfull. Now they have some browser login as part of setup.On my last instalation that did work I had to manualy brute force password.
>>107047528>I literally couldnt install it on fucking debian. Why does instalation have to be so painfull.What about Docker?
>>107047528>Why does installation have to be so painfulThat's just the Linux experience newfag.
>>107047558Didnt try but seems insane I need docker for suck a basic distro.>>107047585I didnt have this experience installing anything else. Sure some missing dependency or some config sometimes. But no other software is this sloppy.
If I setup jellyfin at my house can my parents install it in their tv and have it just work?
>>107047671Depends on the device. Roku has an app for it which generally works fine. Only issue I've had is my files are too high quality for roku so the mini pc has to transcode literally everything. Which can sometimes take a bit to load on first start of a movie. I had a scream 1 rip that I needed to click on twice for some reason before it played.
>>107047045Assuming you have a static IP address. If you don't, you will have to rely on SOME external service to gain access to your server, be that a domain name with DDNS, or something like Zerotier.Of course, a domain name's fucking cheap at like $12 a year.
>>107047528what versions? I just finished setting jellyfin on my Debian server.
>>107047671If you expose it to the internet yes. Jellyfin alone is not enough.
>>107046372geepeetee doesn't know the current date through api
>>107045818based
>>107047671no, you can only use jellyfin sanely from your pc like all the neets who shill it.
U jelly, plexcucks?
>>107045818>>107045978My Hisense has Vidaa OS and there's no Jellyfin on it :( I'm forced to use a Fire TV stick which I don't even want just so I can access Jellyfin...
>>107054363i just wish i could use my icloud storage with my jellyfin setup so i dont have to run it on my own server and rather apples
I tried to install jellyfin on windows and it just opened a command prompty window.>>107056100
