I still actively use Plex, but I've been trying Jellyfin. It's almost there but still has some work to do to catch up to Plex fully. However, its wonderfully free from bloat. I can't stand all the crap they've added to Plex. Especially when I search for content that's IN MY LIBRARY and the result it sends me to is a streaming service I don't even have. 😡

Yeah, I have never really used search for that same reason, I don’t have enough to lose track of anyway.

Thanks for the reply though. I hear about jellyfin a lot and my needs are simple so I’m gonna give it a go.

I still find myself using Plex for its native DVR functions. NextDVR alway seemed a little bit buggier, after finally getting an IPTV source working in Plex I went back (at least for DVR stuff).

Edit: forgot to add, Plexamp and the way Plex does its sonic analysis is worth the lifetime subscription cost to me.
