Excellent choices. Might I hint towards lovely alternatives?

Emby instead of plex (cheaper, and equally capable (use jelllyfin for really free but less reliable))

AgentDVR. Super reliable, mega flexible PVR totally free for private use. Even got options for AI-motion detection and stuff.

And especially: KeepassXC. You'll never regret switching in time.

All the stuff I listed is also free for personal use. But yeah, all those are solid alternatives as options.

I used emby briefly after ditching Plex then settled on jellyfin. It's been over a year and I've had no issues with reliability.

I tried hard with jellyfin after ditching plex. And it was horrible. Then jumped to emby and that was years ago with no single issue.

Jelly might be better now, haven't tried since then.
