I gave up on Plex and just vibe coded a couple quick solutions instead: - Direct streaming 4K blu-ray atmos rips to home theater: just connected a PC via long HDMI fiber optic cable - Library organization: tinyMediaManager is awesome for this. - Watching ad hoc on iPad/iPhone: built a simple Next.js app that lists my movies and and a python script that encodes movies as MP4 and creates HLS playlists. No more real time transcoding. - Downloading movies to my iPad for long flights: vibe coded an iOS app Claude handled all the AV code to download the same HLS streams.
