Like many other long-time Plex users I've begun exploring alternatives to Plex after their disastrous release of the new Roku player interface. I've seen some very helpful info in some of the threads on these forums and the Plex forums, but there’s one big issue I haven’t seen mentioned about the conversion/migration process (or if it was mentioned I missed it). Specifically, will Jellyfin retain all or any of the customized info I’ve entered into Plex over the years, e.g., the studios, taglines and summaries I’ve entered, the genres I’ve assigned to my movies or TV shows, etc.? Or would I have to re-enter all that info in the new platform? With some 6,200+ movies and 24,000+ TV episodes in my Plex libraries, I'm not really inclined to have to start over again on all that data, despite how much I hate their new interface approach.
