Wanted to ask if there was another premium (or free) surefire way to get movies and TV shows in high quality without much hassle? I had an emby shared server that pretty much had anything I wanted but it looks like it shut down completely. I also didn’t notice that the reddits for plex/emby shares had been banned for a while cause I had this service for the past couple years. Any alternatives would be very much appreciated :)
Jellyfin + the ARRs works great.

I think most comments are missing the fact that you were using someone else’s Emby server and might not want to set up your own.
If that’s the case, you could look into a movie-web instance like https://sudo-flix.lol/. Check out the list of instances.
If you really want to be overwhelmed with options, take a look at the FMHY page.
What devices are you watching on? Are you sharing the server with novice people? or its just you?
For me my setup consist of two servers, I run a jellyfin server for me because its much better to watch on the browser, and I have MPV Shim on my pc, and in my living room I use Infuse so it doesn’t matter which server I use.
But I noticed that family members were annoyed trying to set everything up on their end because its no as seamless as plex, so I just installed a plex server on top of that where I share it with others.
Scanning new files on both servers was easy using Autoscan. Click here for a youtube guide
I believe these two, with emby which I really hate, are your only option.
Install Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, Overseerr and you’re good to go, IBRACORP has good guides on how to install and configure these apps.
It might sound “too much of a hassle” at first, but if you want an easy to maintain and configurable setup, I’d suggest going through with this route.
