i gotta ask... why so many plex over kodi users?

ive been using kodi (xbmc was better moniker) since google killed sagetv. i recall attempting plex, but it seemed to lack some open/extensibility (its been awhile).

i have a side project i want to make as a modular plugin generating a cable layout with original air orders and networks/channels... kodi seems most optimal, but ill admit its been a long while since i looked at plex.

so why plex over kodi?

Have you tried to install add-on or scraper to Kodi? On mobile or remote bases device. Please let me know how many steps it take to that, and also when you find a scraper , how long it actually stays up

My Kodi has a built in scraper, and the few addon's I need have been hassle free to install. 0 complaints.

Kodi is extremely fussy about file names for automatic scraping. If you follow the naming standards, which is easy if you using something like sonarr, the built in scanner will work fine.
