Was going to say the same. Why use plex, when jellyfin exists.

Edit: spelling

[–] LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (10 children)

Because jellyfin has less device compatibility, worse transcoding performance, and still struggles with media matching. Oh and still had memory leak issues.

I have it installed, regularly update and test it, i want to ditch plex. But it's just got to many basic issues. Anime matching in particular is rough and yes even after adjusting match sources some anime just outright fails till i manually match, matches incorrectly, won't work either way.

No it's not the filenames. I use Sonarr, they are all very clean.

Series name(year) | Season folder (001) | SxxExx episode title

Edit: i give up figuring out how to make this stay treed, fucking hate reddit/lemmy formatting

worse transcoding performance

You have to pay on Plex to use hardware acceleration for transcoding. Lmao

I paid for lifetime in 2012. Worth it.
