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?

    Much easier to set up and share with others. Kodi takes a lot of back end work to make it usable and I’m having a hell of a time getting consistent results to different devices from my NAS.

    Plex took far less effort to do the same results but their paywall certainly justifies their ease of use
