The Problem with Self-Hosted Plex
Plex is incredible software — but running your own server means buying hardware, maintaining drives, keeping it online 24/7, managing transcoding, and dealing with power costs. Most people give up after their NAS starts struggling with 4K transcoding or their home internet upload is too slow for remote streaming.
TyTe Hosting (tyte-hosting.com) handles all of it. Your movies, TV shows, and music live on our Synology NAS. Plex runs on our server. You just open the app and watch.
