Plex Media Server

Media server has always been bad on Nvidia shield but it used to just need a quick restart or for me to go through a browser and relink my media folders. More annoyingly, the most recent time (possibly last 2 times) I had to fully reinstall the server app to be able to link to my account. The link code appeared to work but the screen would flicker and show a new code. After reinstalling I was able to link the server and add my folders again. It is getting boring.

Plex is dead for me .free basic services such as having 2 extra users to share with is gone. Alexa skill is eliminated -the only option i had my plex for - and not to mention the lack of privacy and juming the $99 premium life time subscription to about $300 for a closed source app when there is a much better option like jellyfin server which does everything that plex struggles to be. The wholphin app working as client app on your shield / google tv paired with jellyfin server offers you an experience you will forget plex or any simillar paid subscription services for ever.

Media Server: "manage me in the Plex app!" Plex App: "I don't do that." This used to be fantastic and easy to use software. They clearly have other things on their minds than offering a media server. This just no longer works.
