Yeah, I have a docker compose yaml script you can baseline of off and help walk you through with my lessons learned.

And somehow you think that Plex isn’t exposing your server to the Internet for streaming while not on your local network?

Okay there Mr. Madison.

Samsung is being a bit of a dick apparently.

It’s not that hard to get a reverse proxy up, get a free DDNS, and a SSL certificate from let’s encrypt.

This is a pretty solid one stop shop for handling all reverse proxy for jellyfin and other applications like sonarr, radarr, transmission, ombi and lists of others that are pretty much drag and drop configuration files if you’re not mucking with the application’s default ports.

Yeah, welcome to the easy, fast, cheap conundrum.

If you’re willing to do a bit of learning and asking the community for help if you get a little stuck, you’ve got a free solution, if not, which is perfectly okay mind you, then Plex is your solution and you have to decide how much you’re willing to pay.

And honestly, of you’re going down the home media route with friend and family, you’re going to want to set up sonarr, radarr, ombi, transmission with VPN anyways.

Yes.

If you don’t like the price there’s always jellyfin.

Got to say that I have been very happy with it.
