      I have jellyfin for group viewing and sharing, but it’s actually just a bunch of symlinks to an NFS share, which is also exposed as a fileserver (caddy with basic auth)

      So I can stream via jelly clients, or remotely stream/download files directly, or read straight off my local NAS.

      I’m interested in using VLC more for home viewing. Right now it’s my only option for playing my imaged DVDs on the fire stick. The interface is decent but I’m wondering if you know of a more normie friendly way to select titles, other than browsing a network share.

          Played with it again yesterday. Interface is better than I remember but I think it viewed the .iso files as DVD directories, forcing me to pick a VOB file and deal with it.

          Is that similar to your experience?

            I haven’t used ISO much since my days of PC game piracy. I know VLC handles physical media with slight jankiness like what you’re describing though.
