ive been using kodi (xbmc was better moniker) since google killed sagetv. i recall attempting plex, but it seemed to lack some open/extensibility (its been awhile).

i have a side project i want to make as a modular plugin generating a cable layout with original air orders and networks/channels… kodi seems most optimal, but ill admit its been a long while since i looked at plex.

so why plex over kodi?

    I checked like 9 months ago and couldn't find any information on how to get it set up to work or how well it works. Until it becomes far more readily accessible, I'd argue that feature alone makes it worth sticking with Plex.

      And here I just press the right arrow key lol

      Plex has so many antifeatures I can't ever imagine using it, and Jellyfin is okay enough to use.
