Yes!</p><p>Its been so long since I evaluated both <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Jellyfin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jellyfin</span></a> and Plex (and others), I can no longer provide any relevant comparison... but I was always wary of the whole "free but not really" model. Jellyfin has been good despite a somewhat painful (from what I recall) setup (and getting the right ffmpeg for encoding - blegh). Yeah, sometimes you have to finangle some metadata to get things to show up in the right spot, but that's what <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FileBot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FileBot</span></a> is for.</p>

DopeGhoti<p>I wonder if I can spin up <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Jellyfin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jellyfin</span></a> and just point it to the NAS storing my <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Plex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plex</span></a> library and be about 90% done with the conversion process?</p>
Jack Yan (甄爵恩)<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Plex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plex</span></a> says they will soon start charging users for streaming their own content on to their own devices.
