I recently started using Kodi for my linux distro collection, but some videos look terrible in comparison to when played in VLC. See attached picture with screengrabs from VLC and Kodi of the same frame in an MKV 1080p h.265 file. What could be the issue? I didn’t change any video settings in either
I also don’t get why Plex is being upvoted at all on lemmy because usually anyzhing not remotely (F)OSS is immediately shut down and replaced with a Foss alternative.
Think about Excel use cases -> Instantly asked to also support Libre/OO Calc.
So why is Plex still considered over Jellyfin when the feature parity is almost equal to Plex.
Because it’s not. I say this as somebody who would love to go all in on Jellyfin
What’s missing? I switched to jellyfin over a year ago now and it’s just been better
Jellyfin is great but it’s nowhere near feature parity with plex. I run them side by side. Jellyfin for my personal local playback and plex for everything else.
I’ll switch over eventually but for now, for someone with over 110tb of content and over a dozen remote streaming clients there is nothing better than plex.
It’s been trash previously, but became fully usable in the past 2 years or so. Still has a lot of playback issues, but works in most cases.
It’s because despite all of its issues it still mostly just works and is very good.
I think it’s because Jellyfin still needs some polish.
It’s getting better every day, though. I run both in parallel and usually use Jellyfin, but my family uses Plex for now.
