As the title says. I have been searching for something like Kodi but more focused on an offline library manager for all the media I have. I can just navigate with the file explorer through my folders but it just looks not that pretty. Is there anything like a library manager to display my videos/music in a similar way of big online platforms? Since I have a lot of things to watch on my drive I don’t actually use much internet lately and I’m searching for something like a good looking UI, but probably I’m not very good at searching :(
Do you know a anything like that?
Jellyfin all the way. Its just amazing, Im surprised most comments are not like mine
Thanks this was exactly what I needed
If you want offline, don’t chose Plex.
I have Plex premium. When there was an internet outage in my area, Plex struggled to play even offline media.
You just need to set it up accordingly.

*If you want to have exactly one user (the admin user) always.
I limit it to my devices, better than not being able to access anything during an outage.
Kodi for local stuff, jellyfin for if you want to access it remotely.
For Music, I’ve started using Navidrome on my server and Feishin on my desktop (a SubSonic server and client respectively). The music has all been tagged using Beets so there’s a nice display.
For Video, I second the AppleTV 4K with Infuse app recommendation. Just accesses my library using NFS, and gets all the metadata from wherever to show an organised library, with a player that can handle anything.
