I have a TCL tv with (with google smart TV software) and have been ingesting TV shows, games, and movies primarily from an xbox using various paid streaming apps for like 15 years. As streaming costs go up I’ve wanted to set up a media server compatible with playing stuff from the xbox and have had some friends suggest Plex so that we could potentially share media. People here seem partial to Jellyfin but the internet seems to feel it doesn’t work smoothly with xbox (buggy app/integration). Any suggestions for the most elegant setup possible for hosting a home server for streaming TV shows and movies from xbox?

    The only part I feel confident with right now is safely obtaining the media. I’m fine with that step being manual.

      Install Plex on your media server. Install Plex on your Phone.

      Point Plex at your media on your server.

      See if it works on your phone.

      If it does, install Plex on your Xbox.
