I was just forwarded this someone in my household who watches our server. That’s it folks. I’ve been a hold out for a long time, but this is honestly it.

They want me to pay to stream content that I bought from my hardware transcoded also on my hardware.

I’ll say it. As of today, I say Plex is dead. Luckily I’ve been setting up Jellyfin, I guess it’s time to make it production ready.

Edit I have a Plex Pass. More comments saying “Just buy a plex pass” are seriously not getting it. I have a Plex Pass and my users are still getting this.

        Yeah, or that they misconfigured something or didn’t sign into their account, or that it’s a random bug.

        Because if you have a Plex pass your users don’t have to pay anything for remote streaming. And OP is apparently unaware of the well publicized change so I’m thinking they’re the unreliable narrator.
