@Chancerubbage@mastodon.social my original intent was to aggregate all my digitized movies into a single machine. Figured some management might be nice. Tried and mostly failed to get Plex running. Had never heard about JellyFin before, but configuration was not too difficult.
Now I'm set up with multiple users and my family can watch different things in separate rooms. Can even stream remotely via TailScale (in theory anyway, haven't tried other than a couple tests).

@dandrumheller@mstdn.social Yes, my situation will not be complex. No multiple users, probably only one tv screen. But I would like access via Apple TV hardware, which might only leave Plex. Plex, which I think spun off of Xbox media server, has been a go to for years, until a recent change on back end, or policy, soured opinions. Why? I have no idea. The most complicated sorting management would be multi episode TV and animated shorts, and supplemental docs to films.
