I’ve got Jellyfin up and running right now on a DS620Slim NAS and it’s running pretty good so far. I’ve seen a lot of people say they prefer Plex over Jellyfin. What are the main advantages to plex?

Jellyfins Xbox app is unusable and afaik there's no app for Samsung tvs or at least not older ones.

Hmm how old is your Samsung TV? Jellyfin doesn't have an official app that you can find in their app store however you can side load it (it's called jellyfin tizen)

I'll be honest and it was far from an easy task to side load it and I don't actually remember how I got it installed in the end but it is doable and works great
