@keen456 Jellyfin works well with Kodi via a plugin! I'm doing it now on a media center PC and it's pretty great, actually.

My backend is simple, just Jellyfin on a Debian server. Media is pulled off of my Samba server, so I can easily add new media as I rip it. And because it's on a Samba server backups and access across the network is a breeze.
