Emby competes with Plex but does not rival Plex in terms of popularity. Plex is definitely the chosen winner among end users above Emby or Jellyfin.

  • Petition to restart the Stargate Command streaming site.
    I think this would be a bit of a hiding to nothing, an alternative considering you own all the DVD's, would be /r/selfhosting on something like Streama or Plex - assuming you have some spare hardware to do so, and can be bothered digitising your collection! Source: over 2 years ago
  • Is there a self hosted media player?
    Https://github.com/streamaserver/streama or Airsonic maybe? Source: almost 3 years ago
  • I want to create a Virtual Machine that runs some software that lets me listen to, watch, or view media through a web browser.
    I used Streama a few times. It's really great. You should check it out. Https://github.com/streamaserver/streama Demo: https://streama.demo-version.net/. Source: about 3 years ago

  • Program for sorting DOWNLOADED movies/games?
    I used to use Plex until I found Emby. I find Emby easier to use and it does the same thing. Just putting this here as a fourth option for OP. :). Source: 5 months ago
  • Ask HN: What is your streaming setup like?
    I use https://emby.media along with private trackers and Usenet. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
  • Just checking: Plex is still the best option right?
    You can find it here! I have both installed, but I generally keep EMBY turned off until I want to play around with it. You can have both running at once and both accessing the same folders. You can check it out for free. Source: 10 months ago
  • Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirates life for me!! Recent streaming services, prices and shows getting butchered, finally decided its time. Here's how a basic self-hosted 'Netflix' would look like. Fully automated once its setup. Using only a makeshift homelab server from second hand parts.
    Emby: Offers premium features with some behind a membership. Source: 10 months ago
  • media server, bring old days and share with friends
    I went with Emby, personally. Plex, Jellyfin, etc are all good choices too! :). Source: 10 months ago
