    A Home Server for media streaming, game streaming, home automation and management.

  • Here's a list comparing their features. It was updated in March.

  • Swiftfin

    Native Jellyfin Client for iOS and tvOS

  • I feel obligated to point out this isn't Jellyfin. Jellyfin doesn't charge for anything. This is for a third party app called Infuse that can work with any media server. Jellyfin does have an AppleTV app in beta right now called Swiftfin

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • PlexKodiConnect

    Plex integration in Kodi done right

  • I think Kodi is still the superior video player over Plex, so I use this plugin to have the best of both worlds - https://github.com/croneter/PlexKodiConnect

  • intro-skipper

    Discontinued Fingerprint audio to automatically detect and skip intro sequences in Jellyfin

  • You can find it here

  • jellyfin-kodi

    Jellyfin Plugin for Kodi

  • Jellyfin also has a Kodi plugin which IMO works better than PKC.
