Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing
ricardofcf@lemmy.pt 5 days agoI find the server part of Jellyfin to work pretty well and I love that it provides some features you would have to pay to get on Plex (skip intro/credits for instance). The clients on the other hand, specially for tvOS and the fact that you can’t install it from the store on Samsung TVs, are really what’s making it difficult for me to switch.
That’s good to hear. I honestly haven’t tried it yet, I need to. The problem is exposing it to the Internet without a VPN.
Clients don’t concern me, from what I understand it works on Roku and you can stream from your phone to a Chromecast, that’s all my users need.
I refuse to use any TVs built in smart features 🤷♂️

Yeah it “works” on LG TVs but only if I don’t use SSL, possibly due to the (perfectly valid) LetsEncrypt certificate in my case.
That’s not a huge deal for my LAN access but it’s still pretty dumb. It would be nice if more devices properly supported it.
