Jellyfin's an awesome open source home media server. I'll show you how I use it to organize my movies and TV shows.Part 1 (how I rip media to my computer) he...
I’ve been running Plex on a Pi 3 and now Pi 4 along with multiple other containers with no real problems. I don’t transcode obviously but have no issues with performance.
I also installed Jellyfin last week to run side by side but ended up uninstalling as even when idle the memory usage went through the roof.
Yeah my pi 4 works perfectly with Plex. The only issues I have with Plex is the apps on certain devices. For example on my Xbox it will stutter on a 4k movie but my TV app works fine. It’s pretty uncommon though. Also works great for everyone else I have on it. Just have them set the quality to original in the settings and smooth sailing from there. Barely uses any power from it. I can have multiple 4k HDR streams at one time

I had jellyfin and 20+ more containers on rpi4 4GB and didnt have that problem.
There isn’t a problem. It just consumed more memory than I’d have liked.
I’ve just powered on the container and the system went from 1.75G to 2.47G consumed. This is when it’s idle.
I’ve just stopped the Plex container and memory usage is now 2.40G. Plex is definitely more lightweight in comparison.
Had you installed the native programs or everything on docker?
Almost everything in docker. Pihole and wireguard bare metal
