Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn’t be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.

    This is the last straw. I already was very shakey with all the restrictions that were piling up, but this is just one thing too much. Cancelling my subscription and installing jellyfin.

      Yep same here, I’ve been curious about trying Jellyfin for a long time now so this just gives me all the more reason

          I installed Jellyfin on my server but the Android TV app is just so awful.

          It honestly feels like a webpage from 2005 with all the blocky elements, terrible scrolling, and no way to sort.

          If you want to go to, say, Workaholics, you have to scroll through your entire library until you get there. There’s no option to go straight to W. And, don’t worry, the scrolling is very slow the whole time!

          The search seems to work maybe 10% of the time. I’ve typed in the name of a movie and it wouldn’t find it, but it did find episodes of shows that kinda match. I’ve typed in names of TV shows and it’s found nothing. Both times, the movies and shows existed in my library.

          If they can make it look and work better, I’d be happy to switch to it fully. All I’d need then is a way to pull the XMLTV file from Plex so I can record, too.

          The Plex app for the Shield has a lot of bugs itself, though. I connected my Shield to a smart plug because it froze the system often enough that I needed to automate a way to restart it. Unfortunately I’d rather put up with that than the Jellyfin UI.

            Hmm never had a problem with Jellyfin on the shield pro or cigar one. On the cigar one Netflix always stops showing video and just the loading screen.

          I’m curious, just checked out their site.

          I’m a little alarmed at needing to modify SSL and port forward and all that shit. My experiences haven’t been great with port forwarding in the past.

          In short jelly fin doesn’t seem as easy as you are all making it out to be.

            That’s only if you want to watch it outside your home network, and either way I would recommend not just opening a port to the world like that. I’d say to use Tailscale (which is trivially easy to install) for remote viewing.

      I switched to Jellyfin a long time ago and I don’t regret it at all. Even for non-techie friends and family the experience has been more pleasant.

        Yeah. it was just pure lazyness on my part. I had Plex setup and all and didn’t want to bother with something new.

          I have both side by side syncing with each other. Plex is still better then jellyfin. It’s just more polished has more features and isess buggy. Saying that I use jellyfin all the time but not ready to move others over.
