the idea of signing up at plex is somewhat antithetical to a lot of selfhosters.. theres nothing plex is doing that cant be done for free with better software.

To be fair that's a pretty recent development. Jellyfin apps for smart tvs are only just becoming stable enough for real use. Plex was the only option for a long time.

ha, k.

most of us have been using some form of emby/jellfin, sage(defunct), xmbc, myth(defunct) for decades.. i mean theres a huge list of not new software.

smart tvs are only used by people who cant setup their own stuff and are generally derided as garbage.

"tvs" for most of us are an hdmi input

I wasn't aware that you could even BUY non-smart TVs anymore...unless you're using PC monitors as a TV of sorts, that is.

"retail display panels" but ya gotta watch refresh specs

or what some of us do, just leave it on hdmi input 1, never connect to a network

Mind throwing a shopping link my way for retail display panels?

For the second thing, if I have to, that's what I'll do.
