Following months of testing, Plex has started to roll out its redesigned mobile app to Android and iOS devices, and it will arrive to everyone within the next week. The new app comes with an updated navigation system that should make it easier to access different parts of the app and find content to watch, along with a dedicated tab for centralized media libraries.
It also has a button in the top-right corner of the screen for your Watchlist and more artwork across detail pages for shows and movies, as well as cast and crew profiles. In a post on the Plex forum, the company outlines a ton of improvements it has made to the app since the preview, including faster load times and scrolling, the addition of a sleep timer, and picture-in-picture support.
So I have a NAS running Ubuntu I only keep my movies, my Jellyfin, and torrent software on in an isolated VLAN I stream from. I would think this would make any security issue with Jellyfin a dead end. I stream all content from Jellyfin domain I made and never use it locally. I stream off it at home from my VPN. This seems a safe way to stream where it can be used away from home unless I am missing something? Pointing out any holes in my logic is appreciated.
If it’s a private VPN, you should be fine. If it’s publicly accessible the jellyfin access through a vpn itself doesn’t matter. They can just subpoena a request to your domain registrar to get your information since the IP won’t yield anything useful for them.
The VPN is a paid no-log VPN out of Panama. The traffic goes through the VPN applied to the VLAN and my device I stream to uses a different connection to the same VPN service. The domain is a DDNS.
Eh, if that’s operating in the US (or other country that cares), they may still give up the mapping to a legal request.
