I haven’t set up Kodi, but I would assume the go-to here would be a minidlna, samba, or nfs server w/ Kodi providing the FE.
Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data
kratoz29@lemm.ee 6 days agoKodi ain’t a self host tool, nor a server though but it is a great player, and I happily use the big 3, Kodi, Stremio and Plex (I’d add Cloud Stream as a runner up).

Right. Personally I don’t stream and only access my library from my TV at home. So Kodi is all I need for now. Though I’d like to try Jellyfin one day when I don’t have so much other stuff to do.

If you want to sync watched state, resume position, that sort of stuff outside of your house, Jellyfin would be a good tool for that. And it integrates seamlessly into Kodi. Plex unfortunately doesn’t, you have to launch an addon from Kodi, so it’s not as nice.
