I just celebrated the 1 year anniversary of Pixel Brite, the media server Plex never became.
What makes this different to other media servers?
I’ve put considerable effort into answering that on the site @ https://pixelbrite.site/en/media-server
Proper HDR and ABR are personal favorites. Performance and efficiency (memory, cpu, gpu) numbers are posted there for comparison.
There are several interactive demos available on the site worth checking out
The alternative is asking users to buy $749 Plex Pass or settle for SDR only Jellyfin. I wouldn’t even want that product for myself
