    Is there a jellyfin app on the Xbox? The ps5? Roku TV app store?

    I think no so it’s hard to switch if you have family using many different devices to watch plex.

      Roku TV app store

      Yes, and it works pretty well.

      But not so much with the consoles, though there is a UWP xbox app, but it’s uh, not very good.

      Roku, yes. Xbox as well. PS5 no, but not for lack of trying. That’s apparently on Sony.

      What type of device is the Xbox or PS5 hooked up to? If a TV (“smart TV”) then there is a client for both Roku and Android TV. If they are using a monitor, could they use the web client? Or could they use the web client on either console (I never had an Xbox, and only PS was PS1 so I honestly have no idea)?

      I’ve only used the Android/Android TV/web client versions from the Jellyfin team, but all seemed solid these days. On Linux I’ve also used a number of 3rd party clients, and there are plenty of 3rd party clients for most non-console platforms.
