Jellyfin

I tried Kodi, Plex and a couple of other media server software. Each one had major issues, from simply not playing all videos and not recognizing many TV shows, to requiring specific and difficult folder arrangements for shows to appear in the listings at all. I tried Jellyfin out of frustration. Amazingly, it worked perfectly the first time out. I just drop videos into a folder, and the system downloads pics of the show and all metadata immediately; it even finds clips of even the most arcane movies to preview. The remote on my phone works perfectly as well. All told, I think Jellyfin is far and away the best free (or paid) media server out there. Its ease of installation (virtually none) and good looking interface makes it a no-brainer choice for a media server. Kudos to the developers, keep up the great work!

This app was what I wanted from Plex. Now I can watch my content wherever I go without worry of my memory. However, I have encountered moments when playing my media where the play and skip backward buttons disappear. I also don't see the seek buttons at all despite activating them in the settings. Hopefully, this is fixed in an update.

Good start. Listening to music works decent with rare stuttering (probably can be fixed with increase cache size). Live TV doesn't work well at all with playback error no stream available with tvheadend using hstp and is very slow when using the webtv profiles but watching recordings works fine. (I think it might just be the plugins fault). An offline mode that can download music with playlists, tv shows and recordings, and movies would make this the ultimate package. keep up the good work.
