Anyone used Jellyfin?
I looked at it, but haven't set up a media server yet. I need to for our music collection.
Correction, installed it tonight. I'll load the music library into it overnight tonight.
scp keeps asking for my user password, so only 3/4 of the way uploaded. Just works. All music right now, so I don't know how transcoding will hit it (gave it 4 cores and 8GB RAM for now.)

I had never heard about it, so I added it to my Plex server. It's actually not bad as far as an interface goes. However, the metadata it pulled for my movie collection is horrendous. I turned that part off, lol.

My god how big is your NAS/Server?
It's in ATX tower case. 90TB is in Google Drive. Locally I have 4x2TB SSD in raidz pool.
OK, that's seemingly less crazy.. but still - what the heck is your monthly bill for that?
$12 flat, G Suite business. Unlimited storage.
How do you get that? They want me to buy a minimum of 5 to get that.
Buy just 1, they don't enforce 5 users minimum. You'll still get unlimited storage.
Except it is also Google, and who knows how long they will keep the offer or even the service.
G Suite is not going anywhere any time soon. They might as well kill Gmail if they are willing to discontinue G Suite. Unlimited storage has been there for years, and it's offered as a business service, it'd be pretty dumb to suddenly screw their business customers over. Microsoft and Amazon pulled that stunt before, although with non-business users, and I don't think it worked out too well for them. Everyone I've heard was using their storage services switched to G Suite.
G Suite has now been replaced / rebranded / reimagined to Workplace.
It looks like unlimited storage is gone from all plans except enterprise.The $12 plan gives you 2TB of storage per user.

I have one of these attached to my Plex and totally love it.
SiliconDust HDHomeRun Scribe Quatro OTA DVR Recorder with 4 TV Tuners & 1TB of Recording Storage Equivalent to 150 Hours of Live TV - (HDVR-4US-1TB)
It allows me to see all the local HD OTA channels while I am away.

Existing users are usually grandfathered in, I know lots of people still on old G Suite plans. I proactively upgraded to enterprise for $20/mo few weeks ago. Still unlimited, and still really good value, and no minimum user requirements.

Do you know if different users can have different levels? IE: One users is Enterprise, and another user just needs the free version (or has the free gone completely away now?)

Free was gone years ago afaik. And I think all users have to be on the same plan. I can't check on my personal plan, as I don't wat to add additional users, but I'll ask my reseller at work if users can have different plans. Btw, we still have old G Suite Basic at work, no mention of rebranding to Workplace anywhere.

I was actually looking for a new account, which is why I noticed. I kind of assumed that old users would be grandfathered in but enterprise sound like an option. Thanks!

If you can't sign up for enterprise, I've heard some people couldn't, I have no idea why, sign up for business, and then upgrade through billing options.

Also, the Destination for recordings is the Plex Server and its storage, so none of the recordings (that the kids have) are ever stored on the HD.
