I was thinking of getting an Odroid N2+ to use as a Jellyfin/Plex server. What other things can it be used for?

I know there is RetroPie but I have no interest in that. Any other suggestions?

    I would have preferred Jellyfin as well but chromecast was not working on my TV properly. So I tried Plex which worked fine.

    There are only a few things I like to watch so I don’t need jackett etc.

    Then I realised that I can just use a dlna server and cast using VLC for Android. This is working much better for me than Jellyfin or Plex which are overly complicated. I cannot even disable metadeta fetching in Plex. And have to log in their central server for some unknown reason.

      If you are satisfied with DLNA, both Jellyfin and Plex enable that. But yeah, the best feature of those is syncing across devices and overall library management, so if you don’t need that, DLNA by itself is probably easier.
