I’ve feel like I’ve used Plex forever. I also feel like every couple years I try Jellyfin to see how it’s going. Recently I tried it again because of Plex restriction on more than one user.

Well, I just tried it again and it’s substantially improved! This time it actually properly detected most of my library!

Also the Android TV app is AWESOME! No more glitches, lagging, and freezing trying to play my stuff like Plex did. It is butter smooth.

Wow! I’m impressed and I just deleted Plex. Good riddance.

    Unfortunately the preinstalled old clients suck and there is no way for Plex to update them (this is on the TV manufacturers). If you are otherwise happy with your TV, you can get a better client via a HTPC or streaming box (such as nvidia shield or apple tv). Jellyfin clients might work better on those as well, e.g. you would get less transcoding.
