ive been using kodi (xbmc was better moniker) since google killed sagetv. i recall attempting plex, but it seemed to lack some open/extensibility (its been awhile).

i have a side project i want to make as a modular plugin generating a cable layout with original air orders and networks/channels… kodi seems most optimal, but ill admit its been a long while since i looked at plex.

so why plex over kodi?

    To force my NAS to do another transcode would be stupid, IMO.

    yeah, i dont understand the attempt to get the nas to do more than being a nas. its busy bein nas.

      I agree. I disable transcoding and use direct play. Jellyfin is a multi device library for the files on my nas.
