ive been using kodi (xbmc was better moniker) since google killed sagetv. i recall attempting plex, but it seemed to lack some open/extensibility (its been awhile).

i have a side project i want to make as a modular plugin generating a cable layout with original air orders and networks/channels… kodi seems most optimal, but ill admit its been a long while since i looked at plex.

so why plex over kodi?

    From what I know Plex is the simplest solution between my qnap TS-230 and LG CX Oled. Kodi doesn’t run on LG OS. This way I don’t need any additional device. Without transcoding the TS-230 allows smooth 4k HDR playback even with bitrates up to around 100Mbit/s above that it gets stuttery. But I must say I can’t really tell the difference above ~60Mbit/s.

    But I love being corrected.
