I have setup Jellyfin as a docker container and will bind-volume the same locations as Plex, but I was interested in anyone’s perspective having made the switch in the last year or so.

What are some things you miss, what are issues/benefits you hadn’t expected?

    i didn’t know that about Symfonium, thanks for letting me know. what a rude guy. It sucks that happened to you, I’m sorry.

    i’ll switch to Finamp then :)

    jellyfin’s support is much better than Plex, it works great without problems. i get my metadata from anidb, anilist and the other sources easily.

    i renamed the anime shows according to episode order of anidb and jellyfin shows them up very well. one thing i like is how it can see every season as a seperate show.

    i hash my anime files with Shoko Server and it gets the metadata from AniDB.

    then i installed the Shokofin plugin for Jellyfin and it loads all the metadata from Shoko’s database. i got more than 800 anime shows and movies imported easily without an api ban :)

    Plex was always hanging while getting the metadata.
