Not what you asked but I’m a huge Jellyfin fan. I used Plex for a while but it struggled with Anime and higher bitrates. The interface responsiveness is GARBAGE compared to Jellyfin on my Nvdia shield pro too.
The problem is the parents and inlaws are already setup with plex and dont l’île change. I keep thinking about trying IPTV but its almost pointless with thé *arrs
Does the HDR tone mapping work for other users? I have an HDR capable OLED but most of my friends using my Plex server have TVs with no HDR support so the HDR content I download looks like ass for them. I’d like to fix that, but not if every single user has to pay for it.
I have Plex Pass, since the early days when lifetime was much cheaper, and never had any trouble with HDR specifically like you said.
And I’m the only one with Plex Pass, everyone else in the free tier.
HDR to SDR tone mapping support is currently available as a Plex Pass preview and requires an active Plex Pass subscription for the main Plex Media Server account.
Okay cool, so it sounds like it would fix this issue for all my users as long as I maintain Plex Pass or buy a lifetime subscription. I might consider this since it’s easier than talking my friends into investing in a nice HDR TV or watching shows from their house and feeling pained that they don’t seem to care.
That lifetime Plex pass deal is looking pretty good these days
What does Plex pass give you that you want to pay for it? I’ve considered it for awhile now but never bought it.

A bunch of useless shit that no one asked for. The only useful thing I could see for the Plex Pass would be for HDR to SDR tone mapping.
Hardware transcoding, if your hardware has support for it, the ability to analyse media and skip intros and HDR tone mapping mostly.

Wait what? You can hardware transcode on Plex without the pass…unless I’m misunderstanding?
Quick Sync transcoding is locked behind the paywall.
