Takes half a minute to start playing, which gets annoying real quick when a toddler gets involved with all the short videos.
Random buffering every 10-15 minutes on most 1080p as well as 4k videos.
Random buffering every couple of minutes on certain videos - the whole of the office us is the last one I remember.
Crappy multi audio track support - some of them play, but most don’t. What was most infuriating at first was jellyfin happily selecting the track I want in UI and then just playing the default one anyway.
The UI is kinda crap - I understand moving on a tv screen is more difficult, but god damn - what jellyfin is doing with arrow navigation is plain masochistic.
When it works - it’s beautiful. But it rarely does so for long enough.
I really want to like it, but it’s doing its best to push me away.
And before you suggest anything - I’ve already tried everything there is to try that’s available on the open internet. Happy to hear something that’s never been posted anywhere, though!
I haven’t really had any of these issues. Those would certainly be enough to push me away. I know I was having somewhat similar issues with consuming the content before enabling hardware acceleration. I haven’t tried changing audio tracks so idk there. I’m sorry to hear you’ve been having a bad time
I can only vouch for my setup; many variations are available.
Hit me up if you ever decide to go self hosting route and need a hand with a thing or two!
Curious about your issues with jellyfin? Ive been using it basically issue free for a few months
