Those are all good points and I'm happy you replied, as it will probably help other who read this ๐Ÿ˜Š

However I already have a Plex server for my older media (VHS ๐Ÿ˜… tapes) that I have converted to digital, that's hosted on my NAS, and lifetime Plex pass. I have been meaning to look into open source replacements but many older smart tvs only have Plex ๐Ÿคท
