Although the headline focusses on a obvious category of media, it really can go wrong on a lot of other categories as well.

      You must be kidding? Jellyfin is years behind in every aspect except being free software. The best part is that you can’t disable transcoding, which is either insane, malicious or plain incompetent. As soon as that’s an option we can start talking about the rest of it

        We clearly have had very different experiences. Transcoding is optional and you can change it in the media player settings. (It works a lot like YouTube)

        Also transcoding requires very little overhead on Intel systems so I would just transcode to the resolution of your device.
