You want to run an internet tv service for your MIL then do it. Thats just not want Jellyfin is for. Its a home media server.
Is this that hard to understand?
Then it’s not a drop in replacement for Plex, is it?
No shit. Is that not exactly what I have been saying over and over?
My first comment in this thread says clearly that if you want to run a pirate tv service for other people then you’ll want something other than Jellyfin.
You replied to someone and said “my wife has no problem using tailscale”. Is your wife not another person? Sure, same household, but if you’re not running a pirate TV service, why does she need tailscale, and how is that different than sharing with my MIL?
Also, why do you keep using the terminology of “pirate tv service”? Why is it suddenly not a home media server if I want my mother in law to be able to use it? I don’t share with people outside of my family.
You seem to think that because you’re using Jellyfin, it’s automatically not piracy. But you certainly can do piracy with it, it has tools purpose built for it like Jellyseerr. So how is that not a “pirate tv service”?
Do you not know that you can also upload your own media rips to Plex? Is that still a “pirate tv service”? At what point do you assign the (fairly negative, at least legally) connotation of piracy to a service someone is hosting out of their homelab?
My wife and I hardly ever watch TV outside the home. Certainly not with our phones. The only time is when we travel However she does use tailscale daily. That was my point, that tailscale is easy for non-tech people. Sorry if that is confusing.
