I have a vps where I host a few things and I tried adding jellyfin. It worked and while scanning media railed the CPU/ram, once it was done everything was smooth. However, despite having all dependencies a bunch of videos didn’t play. I also don’t need the music and ebooks side of jellyfin as I’ll be using other things for those (funkwhale for music, still looking into the books and comics ) So, which self hosted alternatives do I have for videos and books/comic books? I need things that only do that but don’t well. The video one needs to have a client I can install on a android device I have plugged ony tv

      Kavita is the one I was looking at as well. I hear plex is closed source and I prefer using open.

        I would recommend giving kivata a try.

        Can’t really speak on open source alternative for Plex though (other than jellyfin, which I haven’t used myself even). Good luck on the search!
