Program for sorting DOWNLOADED movies/games?
I used to use Plex until I found Emby. I find Emby easier to use and it does the same thing. Just putting this here as a fourth option for OP. :)

Ask HN: What is your streaming setup like?
I use https://emby.media along with private trackers and Usenet.

Just checking: Plex is still the best option right?
You can find it here! I have both installed, but I generally keep EMBY turned off until I want to play around with it. You can have both running at once and both accessing the same folders. You can check it out for free.

Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirates life for me!! Recent streaming services, prices and shows getting butchered, finally decided its time. Here's how a basic self-hosted 'Netflix' would look like. Fully automated once its setup. Using only a makeshift homelab server from second hand parts.
Emby: Offers premium features with some behind a membership.

media server, bring old days and share with friends
I went with Emby, personally. Plex, Jellyfin, etc are all good choices too! :)

Jellyfin (open source Plex) moves from Reddit to its own traditional-style MyBB forum
For clarity: Emby is still mostly open source (the source code is right here: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby). Emby started incorporating closed source plugins that you only get with the paid version of Emby in order to try and get revenue.

Setting up a home media PC to stream to TV
I used Plex until I found Emby, which is far easier to set up and works very well with all my media.

Is jellyfin really so much better than Plex?
Yup. Personally, I've installed it via dev mode, but the in the web browser it's pretty much the same experience. There is a github issue for webos 4 as well here

Jellyfin is finally out for WebOS 5
I've been refreshing the Github issue daily for those 2 months. So glad to hear it's out!

Why is there no "play next episode automatically" option in the WebOS app? Please don't be like all the other algorithm worshippers who think their users know worst, I want to disable auto play.
Hey OP, check this bug report: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos/issues/53

Why I use Jellyfin for my home media library
It should be coming for webos 5. It’s currently just held up in the review process for their store. https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos/issues/99
I've also been waiting for the Jellyfin app on LG and have been following this issue: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos/issues/99
Current status LG QA is testing it and if it passes should be available in the LG Content Store soon after that.
