If your client device supports the format the media is in, Jellyfin doesn’t transcode it. You can also disable transcoding entirely, if the user doesn’t want it.
Library scans also take just a couple seconds, and that’s on the old 2016 quad core desktop I nabbed out of the trash at my workplace. If yours was taking longer, it indicates an issue with your PC.
What other bits of misinformation do you have to share?
I can't disable transcoding globally, I have to mess with horrible config menus on every client I want to use. Library scans take more than 30 minutes on my i7-4790k NAS - after that I just stopped and removed the jellyfin server from it. Just being open source is not enough. Once it starts working as a user-first app I'll gladly switch over.
