Away from hom and testing the remoteness of my setup, nothing is exposed publicly, its all mesh von so was able to watch my #plex on the tablet knowing there's no open ports or port forwarding on my lan.

@lenzgr You know what weirdly follows this pattern? #JellyFin. I tried to get off #selfhosted #plex and run a self-hosted JellyFin server. Not only can you not organize your media, they are actively hostile to the concept.
I have hundreds of films and thousands of home movie files I have accumulated over 20+ years. All arranged in a directory hierarchy by my own preference. In Plex, I choose “Library” view, make that the default, and never look at their stupid suggestions again. JellyFin literally cannot do this. And if you ask on the forums (I didn’t bother because dozens already have asked and been answered), they just say that’s not how it’s done. There’s no workaround and no backlog item. Please feel free to pound sand.
You dump everything into whatever, and the app surfaces them in whatever predetermined organization you select. Genre (according to some db somewhere), year, recently added, alphabetical. Anything except my way.
I fought it for a few months. I even paid $2.99/mo for an appletv app that was a better client than the native client. Everything ignored my structure and imposed its own on me.
So this mentality of the-system-knows-best has infected even some otherwise good open source tools.

I have just released my first Windows app 🥳
It helps you organize your media library by bringing your file names into the format used by Jellyfin, Kodi, Plex etc. with the help of TheMovieDB and MediaInfo.It's currently unlisted, so can only accessed via this link. It's free. If you have any feedback or encounter any issues, let me know :)

RasPlex turns your Raspberry Pi into a Plex client, and it works really well!
The only problems I have with it are:
1. No controller support.
2. No live TV viewing options.At least it streams my local movies, shows and music no problem. :guilded_thumbsup:
