Comment on Tools to migrate from Plex to Jellyfin?
capybara@lemm.ee 1 week agoThe entire point of jellyfin is being able to remotely access media (with an good interface and functionality). What do you mean by remote access?

As in watch the media not on my own network or have other users do the same from their homes.
Music is another big one that jellyfin can’t compete with Plex with in its current state. I currently have 718 GB of music that I stream with plexamp when I’m driving.

You may have to use port forwarding or a reverse proxy but the end result is functionally identical to plex. IMO the server detection feature of Plex is overengineered for what it is, and I just sit it behind my reverse proxy and connect to it that way.
As for music and apps yeah Plex is pretty nice, but even for audio you could use other services if Jellyfin didn’t fit your needs like Navidrome

You simply expose jellyfin to the internet like you would with any other service. Why did you think it specifically wouldn’t work over the internet for jellyfin?
