Jellyfin for me sucks. Not the server, the client. It works great on my wife's machine but whenever I wanna watch something I get constant issues with crashing and seeking not working.
Its a windows desktop lmao.
This is why I’ve stuck with Emby.
I get why people switched, and I’m open to it eventually, but Emby is much more polished. That’s not to say the Emby clients don’t also crash from time to time.
I recently had a weird bug with Jellyfin, are you by chance using a domain name? Try accessing Jellyfin using direct IP, e.g. http://192.168.1.123:8096/
Can't remember but ill switch to direct IP and see if that helps. Thanks :)
If you're trying to watch 4k content in a browser, AFAIK, Edge is the only one capable.
Nah, the dedicated client.
