Does Plex have a plugin for Archive.org content?
Would 100% go JellyFin vs Plex, also toss in some sonarr/radarr automation and organization. Everyone should have some kinda media streaming server, even if its just kept in house.
Dooooo ittttt!
Edit: Forgot to add the useful comment.
Honestly if you're just starting out, straight up use your existing computer, plug that HDD in, load her up and just follow the instructions or a guide to set it up. Wait to see how much you use it before spending cash.
A recommendation however: Due to how Pokemon is and how Plex's two available metadata sources (TVDB and TMDB) categorize and lay the show out differently, make sure when you are getting the episodes in Plex that you have the TV show matched to TMDB (TheMovieDataBase), not TVDB (TheTVDataBase). Both have the show, but TVDB lumps a lot of the later seasons/series together, whereas TMDB will keep them separate as the correct seasons.
There is also Kodi if you don't want to host something.
find a paid plexshare. Cheaper than Netflix, has everything, no weekends wasted on being a devops
p.s. sorry I didn't look where I'm posting. I'ma open notselfhosted
Haha this comment is keeping it real. That's a good point. I've never looked into a plexshare before. I'll have to look it up.
There are also free ones, BUT they're a lot harder to get into, and a lot of times don't have as much content or aren't managed as well. They do exist if you're patient though, I managed to get into a pretty good one a while back.
For me it’s because all these companies hate Linux for some reason. I have Amazon prime, Hulu, HBO max, and Apple TV, but they would only show sd if I’m on Linux.
That is a user agent thing.
AFAIK, it's an HDCP thing (DRM), not user agent.
Really? Fuck em. It was easy to just change the user agent some while ago. So if I try it in 4k monitor, it won't work‽
yes. Fuck DRM
Yo, I already have Plex set up. I can add Pokémon and invite you if you want as long as you don’t need 99.9% uptime, I’m just some dude :)
"I'm just some dude"
I relate to this so hard.
