Not what you asked but I’m a huge Jellyfin fan. I used Plex for a while but it struggled with Anime and higher bitrates. The interface responsiveness is GARBAGE compared to Jellyfin on my Nvdia shield pro too.
The problem is the parents and inlaws are already setup with plex and dont l’île change. I keep thinking about trying IPTV but its almost pointless with thé *arrs
Its fine enough for most of the time, but its nice to have if a lot of peoole are transcoding at once. Or if someone transcodes 4k for whatever reason.
I have two kids so having Plex sync (or whatever it’s called now) is a must have when we go on trips. Use our server to put movies/shows on their tablets.
What does Plex pass give you that you want to pay for it? I’ve considered it for awhile now but never bought it.

Because no one else answered heres what I use a lot.
Hardware acceleration to use gpu to transcode video.
Intro detection for tv to skip credits.
Subtitle search
Plexamp is a pretty good music player.
I paid for the lifetime pass on sale for $100 which I think is a pretty good deal.
Doesn’t the normal free plex also offer transcoding? Or does it only give you CPU transcoding?
Just cpu.
Thanks for confirming. The CPU seems to do the job fine in my case. I set it to “make my CPU hurt” lol.

The features people replied to you plus also just supporting them as they’ve made a good seamless product for free over the years
A bunch of useless shit that no one asked for. The only useful thing I could see for the Plex Pass would be for HDR to SDR tone mapping.

Managed accounts is a huge one for me. Even with just one extra person in your household, it is a lifesaver for keeping everything separate.
