I setup a Jellyfin server. It took only maybe 15 minutes and I even setup a few profiles with parental controls on one.
I already knew how to acquire the media for the server. It works pretty well on our Roku too. Way better than Plex and way more clean of a UI.
took you 15 minutes? damn i must have been a turtle, and I took a shortcut by using YAMS(yet another media server, basically a script that automates the installation most of the basic features users want)
It was quicker since the machine was already setup as a server on the network. So all I had to setup was Jellyfin. I'm also not including downloading the client software on our phones and Roku. But frankly that was easy and each device found the server immediately.
