Does jellyfin support transcoded downloads already? Thats the only thing holding me back from plex. All my movies and shows are 4k no need to load giant 4k files to a phone when traveling.

Yeah, it also has hardware acceleration for on the fly transcoding. It needs some configuration to tell it what you're running it on but nothing particularly major

Plex is getting worse tough just saying...pushing their own services and now they started blocking certain hosting providers.

It may be but until other options are available on a PlayStation, I doubt I'll move. I don't even watch stuff but the people I serve to need functionally on the PS... maybe they'll get smart TVs soon

Jellyfin is a great and superior alternative.
