Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

    For kicks yesterday I installed jellyfin on a proxmox host with this script: https://community-scripts.org/categories?category=media-and-streaming&preview=jellyfin

    There’s definitely no subtitle sourcing by default. You can select from whatever subtitles are embedded or might be in the folder of the thing, but that’s it.

    It’s rough how many things are missing though. There’s no way to adjust subtitle offset. I can’t find the file name or path of a media file in the app on my fire cube. Multiple versions of files show up as duplicates (I have 480p, 1080p, and 4k copies of some media. I would expect it to give me a selection when I go to open said media between the versions, but instead it shows the same media multiple times.)

    Don’t get me wrong, for the price it can’t be beat. I wouldn’t advise anybody to go with plex today given their trend and sudden price increase for lifetime (limited time offer? lifetime must be ending soon! Hellgate London anyone?)
