I have a lifetime Plex pass but still I am considering switching. Currently I have both Jellyfin and Plex on the same libraries but Jellyfin doesn’t have support for chromecast (on iOS and Firefox) nor support for offline . (Not) covering neither my at home nor travelling use cases 😕

Can you clarify what you mean by Chromecast support? I have a Chromecast device and it has the jellyfin app on it. Works like a charm without issues. I have a feeling you mean something else though?

He's probably referring to just Chromecast without the Google TV module. Jellyfin works great for me as well on the Chromecast w/GTV

I think you can use Infuse on iOS to chromecast. I’m not sure if that’s behind the subscription though.

[–] kvadd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

For chromecast to work with the app, you need to install the jellyfin app from google play, not fdroid or other store.
