Irgendwie hat die Jellyfin-App auf der Streambar von Roku seit einiger Zeit Probleme HEVC (H265) abzuspielen.

Abspielen klappt schon, allerdings kommt es zu sehr nervigen Unterbrechungen weil dauernd gebuffert wird.

Die Bitrate der Dateien ist nicht so außergewöhnlich verglichen mit denen, die problemlos abgespielt werden können.

... alle H265 Dateien nochmal zu konvertieren und durch H264 auszutauschen... Darauf habe ich keine Lust -.-

In Findroid auf dem Smartphone funktionieren einige (aber nicht alle) H265-Dateien ohne andauerndes Gebuffer.

Mal schauen, wie viele H265-Dateien ich überhaupt habe. War mein Standard-Codec für eine gewisse Zeit, bis ich wieder H264 mit Nvenc enkodiert habe.

De momento mi regalo navideño favorito ha sido la actualización de #Findroid (el cliente que uso para ver #Jellyfin).

Replaced the official Jellyfin app for Android on my phone with Finamp for music and Findroid for movies and shows.

The common feature they share?

Offline mode within the app. A critical feature.

You can download seasons and albums from your server and keep all the metadata about them while you play them with the same app.

Same experience as with the Netflix App.

The official Jellyfin App just downloads files to your downloads folder and you lose the order of episodes, tracks, etc. All you get is a video or music file.

I had to export the playlist and install VLC to have a comparable experience listening to my music offline.

Not anymore 😊

Wenn ihr mal eure Filme mit auf Reisen nehmen wollt und einen guten Offline-Mode für #jellyfin wollt: Schaut euch mal die App #findroid an. Gibts aber nur für #Android

First time traveling since the summer last year, which means first time properly testing my self-hosted setup from a different country. Opening #Findroid and being able to stream my content and being able to sync data like contacts and calendar to #Radicale feels amazing. This has no right to work this well. Of course this wouldn't be possible without #Tailscale. I should start to pay for my Tailscale account, because I think they truly have a wonderful product and want to support them.

Ho provato di tutto ma l'unica decente è jellyfin, ma poi ora mi sono accorto che di fatto lato server va più che bene, sono le app android che non funzionano bene, tant'è che se uso #findroid invece di quella nativa su cellulare va 10000volte più veloce e mi riproduce video che l'app ufficiale non fa, sapete se esiste un fork anche per #androidtv ?

@rewarp I'm loving it so far, but yea def lots of things to figure out and some issues here n there. My findings so far:

On desktop, use the desktop app (well at least on macOS.. hopefully this issue with #Linux/#Flatpak gets fixed soon)

On #Android, the best app I found was #Findroid - works super well and looks amazing.

On iOS, the best app I found, still testing it tho, is #Streamyfin. #Swiftfin wasn't really up to par I don't think.

None of the "official" clients on mobile are really an option since they're just a wrapper of the web client - which means transcoding is almost a must, and I'd like to avoid that.

Haven't tested the official client on my Android TV yet, so I'm not sure if it's also a wrapper. If it is, then I've to find a third party client, unfortunately Findroid isn't avai on Android TV yet.

edit: Tested the official Android TV client and it seems to be native, since I'm not having the subtitle desync issues and I don't think it's transcoding. Yay!

Yes, +1 for #findroid . The only gap it has is that it doesn't cast, but you can just use the web version of #jellyfin for that.

God, i love #findroid. What a great viewing experience. My whole #mediastack has been a great pleasure to use.

Une autre app toute fraiche, Findroid, client vidéo pour jellyfin natif et donc bien plus rapide que le client officiel.
