Lifetime Pass Member.. just put on The Devils Advocate (1997) and got a full 30s ad.

… just paused it to verify it was actually in my library… -and got another 2 ads… what the actual fuck? Just me?

EDIT: Looking back at the app, seems I was somehow in Plex Streaming, but how it was put up above my own content I can’t understand, and the movie page does not make it obvious that’s what I’m looking at.

Damn, watching ads to play local content. Glad I never used Plex.

This has not been a thing ever in plex's history. If they actually tried pulling this they'd lose 90% of their user base within a few months.

Jellyfin isn't just an alternative anymore. It's an en par replacement, in most ways, and generally supersedes it.

i had to go with emby. jellyfin still has no apple tv app, and no way to bulk edit library item metadata. maybe even more stuff i didn’t get to before i had to abandon it.

Swiftfin works great. Infuse is also an option. Bulk editing is probably on the feature request list. (yep sure is https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/144/editing-metadata-for-multiple-items-at-once) Pull requests are welcome. There is also the JEMM application for metadata edition. Not sure if it still works with the current API.
