You can share your plex library. So the person can stream from your files. Pretty easy to set up.
This is what I do. Plex server with storage at home and brother just connects via his app built into his TV. They just text if they want a certain movie or TV show and I add it.
I have them setup public watchlists in imdb and send me the Id and just explain that it checks the list every hour or so. It's hand off on my end that way.
Yup I did this when I had a server and my non tech savvy friends never had an issue. I even have them access to Radarr, Sonarr, etc do they could add things themselves.
I have a similar setup. The only strange thing is that one house always seems to have buffer issues while the rest don't (they'll start a show and it will buffer every few minutes). What would you recommend in that situation kind stranger?
A better ISP or a better WiFi connection. Most of the time it is bandwidth related. Maybe let them manually select a lower quality stream.
I may need to do that. I suggest that everyone stream the original file to avoid transcoding but they just may need to do it. Thanks!
