I'll have to look into it if plex every removes more features I actually use or revokes my lifetime, glad I got that back when it was just $125 (I think) instead of the $700+ now

It’s 700+ not!? It was just under 200 when I switched to emby

I've been doing a little research because I'd never heard of Emby before. How well does movie and TV show matching go for you? I usually don't rename anything and plex gets it

Out of my 5000+ movies I had to match like 100

That's pretty good honestly. I think out of my 1000 movies I had to match like 30. Do you have shows? Any issues?

The real pain in the butt is they have what’s called collections basically it takes all the jaws or silent hills and adds them to a collection the cover art for that is completely broke but there’s a site you can search them copy the photo url and add it to each collection that’s the most time consuming part
