I’ve got Jellyfin up and running right now on a DS620Slim NAS and it’s running pretty good so far. I’ve seen a lot of people say they prefer Plex over Jellyfin. What are the main advantages to plex?

    My experience with Jellyfin have not been great. The mobile app is just not working well enough

    Plex has lots of customisation available (which I prefer) but is a little harder to get running in my experience. I’d say, install them both and see what you like most. Do start with Jellyfin as it’s easy to install.

      Not sure how long ago you tested it, but there is now an alternative Android app called Findroid which I like much more than the official app.

      I’ve found my media I play over the network looks grainy on some devices using Jellyfin. But it’s probably settings I have wrong

        Been quite a while! Thanks for telling me though, I will test it out when I get to it!
