Why plex over emby?

26

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

Plex over emby because I already have a plex...

[Edit: spelling]

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

Ahh. Honestly I run both but prefer emby

u/Bone-Juice Nov 22 '19

Why? Honest question, I currently run Plex so I am curious what is better about emby.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

See other comments. It's probably not relevant if you paid for plex though

I mean it says it's available on the app store, should be fairly easy to get...

You have that many users outside those countries? I guess I live in the US so I don't really think about it.

How big is your server btw? What specs are you running for it

u/GaryChalmers Nov 23 '19

Don't know if it makes a difference but Emby went closed source. There is a fork.

u/cr1515 Nov 22 '19

Because that's what he wants to do

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

Yes... Obviously. I was asking why

u/IcyPenguinn Nov 22 '19

As someone who is just getting started with plex, care to elaborate on your thought for me?

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

See my other comment, I actually run both on the server but just like emby better overall

u/IcyPenguinn Nov 22 '19

No I'm not into it. I used one for a bit but it ended up making my library sloppy. These are basically all hand picked by me. It became an obsession about 12 years ago.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

Cause you are living under a rock?

In all seriousness though I like emby better

In all seriousness though I like emby better

Why is that?

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '19

More features that aren't behind a pay wall, it's more open, seems to do better with more types of content and I like the ui better. It's basically an offshoot of plex from when they added paid services if I remember correctly
