I think I might cancel. I’m not watching ads and I’m not going to pay the extra $3/mo to opt out. I don’t know if I’d end up paying more than the subscription cost in shipping though…

    The nice thing about Jellyfin is that you can point Jellyfin and Plex to the same media folders and both will work, to try it out.

    I would get a Synology with intel Quicksync if you go the Synology route for hardware transcoding. Unfortunately, a lot of the new models don’t have it.

    I just have a 220+ but would maybe get a 4 bay model if I did it again.

      i do this with jellyfin and kodi. the media library is standalone. they both get read-only access to all the metadata which i manage with a different tool (mediaelch)
