How would you say Jellyfin compares to Plex? Just today installed Plex server so definitely early enough in the process to hop to a difference media server 😁
Last I checked (which admittedly was a few years ago), Plex was the only thing that could add subtitles to something being Chromecast’ed. That’s the primary way I watch things on my actual TV, and since apparently I’m deaf AF and need subtitles for everything, Plex was the best choice. The others would’ve required processing stuff with handbrake ahead of time.
Bought a lifetime subscription though and it’s been well worth it.
Check out Jellyfin when you’re looking at your options for something like Plex. I love it.

There’s apparently a plug-in for Jellyfin to do the subtitles download thing… haven’t tried it though
Not even just the downloading–Chromecast needs some weird encoding or something, apparently?
