I got a Synology NAS for my children’s photos and wanted my music to be available in our LAN as well. Jellyfin looked good and is open source so I gave it a try. I am very happy with Finamp as a mobile app to play and sync my library.

  • To be fair, even in my family it’s not a full streaming replacement. We have Discovery+, Nebula, and (free) YouTube. Live TV from the Roku player is the main thing I want to replace through IPTV, either Jellyfin or maybe Kodi, but both the metadata and functionality of free sources is a crapshoot. If I could replace the Roku live TV use with some inexpensive paid IPTV source, then I could easily switch to any streaming box brand, like ONN or some other generic Android TV.
