First, child services has been called on multiple occasions and has done nothing. The police don’t care either. They’re disabled so they can’t just leave.

They have a laptop that they can use whenever they want but their patent is extremely opposed to piracy and won’t pay for my friend to buy movies or a streaming service. They watch DVDs from the library on their laptop.

They’re also not tech savvy so I need a plug and play solution that will allow them to pirate media without anyone else in the household being aware of it.

          Whoa, no need to get offended so quickly, have you considered providing anything to the debate instead of being that unconstructive?

            You are the one being unconstructive. Jellyfin is a mess and not remotely feature parity with Plex. OP needs something simple that just works out of the box. Plex answers that call. Jellyfin doesn’t. Go away.

              It’s really simple to set up and works perfectly. Download the software (optimally docker), add a reverse proxy (if you want SSL with a domain), add folders with movies and you’re good to go. Also Plex’s pricing is pretty steep for something a free and open source program can do perfectly.

                Yeah… This is self explanatory…

                  It’s really not that hard, and if it is I’m more than willing to help anyone with it ^^

                  Plex’s “simplicity” is not worth 100€ and the risk of enshittification, as it has to connect to their servers for authentication.
