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?

I have to admit, I really love the skip into feature on Plex. The fact that it runs locally and just analyzes audio for it is super cool for me.

It’s above my knowledge to do it myself, but I’d love to see that implemented in jellyfin eventually.

@pyrodorobo @cyberpunk007 It’s there as a plugin, but isn’t as reliable as what Plex does (for my library at least).

The Android TV client also doesn’t support showing the button, so you have to always have it automatically skip. ☹️

Oooh I might have to play around with it some more then. I have it running alongside Plex but haven’t used it in a bit
