Plex is starting to enforce its new rules, which prevent users from remotely accessing a personal media server without a subscription fee.

Using jellyfin on Chromecast. For the past 3 weeks I'm stuck not being able to use it because some update broke subtitles support for external players. App became useless, I can't downgrade it, and the bug is still not fixed.

Not going to use Plex, just my 2 cents.

I haven't had any problems with subtitles. You mind linking the issue report you're referring to?
