  • I had something similar when I used XMBC (I think it’s called kody now) and it seems it was because there was some confusion with the scrapper to imdb and it needed some manual override file. You had to create a .nfo file or something like that, that told the scrapper the right imdb number or other exact identifier for it. I wouldn’t be surprised if the people at plex have some way to know of all the custom fixes people do and with that, when you have some issue recognizing some content, they can figure out what most people do.

    I would be surprised if jellyfin has any way to to know what the users are doing so that wouldn’t work



  • More refined subtitle support (better timing, more flexibility in how they are presented and better timing) Complex chapter structure (think dvd menus and “bandersnatch” interactive movies and probably things nobody has thougth of doing because of lacks in the technology), segment linking (linking to a file and a timestamp, so you can reuse sections such as intros etc…) Arbitrary file support, to embed anything, text documents, subtitle font files, cover images, license information, client side storage High precision timestamps, rich metadata

    One great thing is it can be extended, so it’s future proof, one bad thing is, it can be extended, so of course Apple made extensions that only work on their shit
