    Playing around with Emby home media server... pretty impressive.

    Like plex for any of the features I want they want money. I'm just used
    to plex and wouldn't change for no extra features. :( Thanks for letting
    us know about something different though!

    Mehhhhh I caved in last night and bought the "lifetime license". No more nag screens, no more limited features.

    I did the same with Plex when they had a black friday sale, I think it was about $120 Canadian dollars (normally $160 Canadian).

    I'm cheap, I just use DLNA on my Synology to share media to my Roku
    using their media player. What am I missing out on?

    Just kill my BBS for Metronet. I can't get things fixed and no
    longer care enough about the BBS to try very hard.

    I still use Kodi on the Nvidia Shields that I have connected to the TVs in the house. I have used it since the XBMC days (when I ran it on modded XBOX consoles).

    It works via UNC paths to my data server where all the content lives.
