I don't know exactly what's your problem, but I would like you to recommend using Jellyfin https://github.com/jellyfin
I have Plex lifetime plus, but I still prefer using Jellyfin...
ill read up on this thanks :D
The only disadvantage I see is that you need to manually put the TV guide, while Plex has it automatically already. (and you will need this to record Live TV)
Also, Plex can be accessed from outside internet without opening ports on your home router (that's much safer). While with Jellyfin, if you want to access from outside internet to your home, you will need to open ports (and I don't recommend it). What I did is to rent a server on a datacenter with like 18T for my stuff, that's not cheap but that server also has many more services, so it's compensated. 😛
Find whatever fits better for you.
Does Plex offer NAT traversal now? It wasn't a thing last year.
You mean this? https://support.plex.tv/articles/200289506-remote-access/ Step 2: For automatic configuration, make sure your router supports the “UPnP” or “NAT-PMP” feature
EDIT: This is what I mean: https://support.plex.tv/articles/216766168-accessing-a-server-through-relay/ There is no "NAT traversal" if I'm not wrong.
Keep in mind jellyfin doesn't work with shuffle, the first episode will be random but then plays them all in order.
What makes UPnP more secure than opening ports?
Isn't that the same? Who said that?
You did:

Oh interesting! I didn't know they had any option besides the UPnP remote connection.
This seems more akin to something like Cloudflare tunnels.
