I did this for a good while but let me tell you, keeping watch progress across devices is a killer feature! I can’t go back.
When I used a folder via NFS I had to memorize my current progress on a episode, then manually open the same episode and seek to where I was on the other device.
With Jellyfin I hit pause on one and play on the other, it’s seamless.
It also shows in-progress and next-up episodes at the top of the homescreen, so resuming playback is just one click.
Maybe there’s a plugin to do this in Kodi, but I find it rather clunky on mobile…
