Hey everyone!
I’ve got a pretty big collection of downloaded videos — things like fitness routines, language learning courses, tutorials, and other miscellaneous stuff. I’m looking for a good way to organize them locally.
Recently I came across Stash, which actually seems really powerful in terms of tagging, grouping, and searching. The only catch is that it's mainly geared toward adult content, and while I love the features, some of the built-in stuff feels unnecessary for my use case. 😅
I already use Jellyfin for movies and TV shows, and I’d prefer to keep that library clean — don’t really want to mix in workout videos and language lessons there.
So I’m looking for something with the following:
- Strong tagging and filtering options (I want to group videos by topic, difficulty, etc.)
- Fast and easy search
- Some kind of visual library or dashboard
- Must be self-hosted — I want to keep everything local. So Plex is off the table.
Anyone know of any tools or services I should check out? Or maybe some creative setups with existing media servers that could work for this kind of collection?
Thanks in advance!
