What's up with "Plex Servers"?

I’m a Plex server guy for friends and family, I have about a dozen users and maybe 3-4 at a time at the peaks. I charge nothing, it’s just a hobby. We’re out there.

I’d switch to Jellyfin but my users need transcoding and Plexamp is my favorite audio player since Winamp.

Does Jellyfin not do transcoding? I’ve been using it with transcoding for almost two years, so if it doesn’t, man that’s gonna be quite the shock.

I dunno, maybe it didn’t when I was first setting up my server a few years back. It doesn’t have Plexamp though and that’s a deal breaker.

It has finamp though right

Doesn’t have the excellent Plexamp automix nor ability to add all my friends shares to my radio stations.

I appreciate the efforts but I’m very happy with my current setup.

By radio are you referring to proxying internet radio streams, rebroadcasting OTA using an SDR, or an endless playlist stream?

None of the above. Algorithmically generated playlists based off song/album/artist, decades, genres, top rated tracks, etc. including intelligent auto mixing based on key/BPM with crossfading, and ability to choose tracks not only from your own libraries, but from all libraries shared with you.
