I personally solve for this by configuring my profiles to download decent sized files for my preferred formats, and then I run FileFlows as well on my media server to automatically transcode everything into the same h265 codec and transcode settings and stuff...it's all just hands free, everything gets spit out perfectly how I want it.
Now that being said, the plex app blows on Apple TV with h265 codecs for some reason, so I'm now using the Infuse app which is ok, but yet another thing. But overall, yeah, I've been able to cancel multiple streaming services (hulu, sling, soon netflix) and have MORE content available than before. saving a grand a year in streaming services ain't bad for a few hours of learning how to set it all up.
