- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 6 months ago:
JF becomes better or Plex becomes worse
Both will happen.
Besides.
some subtitles work on one, but not the other and vise versa
For me it has worked everywhere. All of my media is in .mkv so it already contains the subtitles. It works in all browsers clients, Desktop clients, TV and Mobile clients. Works in VLC and MPV as well on desktop, TV and Mobile. Works with Kodi as well. Works on same network (via both host IP and reverse proxy) as well as remotely via Pangolin.
So you can try putting everything in one MKV Container or maybe change the subtitle formats (if that’s a thing).
- Comment on MPV: The Ultimate Self-Hosted Media Solution You're Probably Sleeping On 7 months ago:
You are technically right but as a human who just wants to watch “The Devil Wear’s Prada” after a long day at work it would be too frustrating.
You have to go through more clicks and more typing to play your media on MPV. On the other hand I can just use my remote to browse through my Jellyfin library after just opening an app.
