New Jellyfin Server/Web release: 10.10.4
forum.jellyfin.org
We are pleased to announce the latest stable release of Jellyfin, version 10.10.4! This minor release brings several bugfixes to improve your Jellyfin experience. As always, please ensure you stop you

There is some discussion regarding JMP (Jellyfin Media Player) and its lack of development the past year. Jellyfin Official appears open to replacing JMP with an alternative, meaning pushing users to a different application.

What desktop clients are people using currently? Are there any in the works that you believe could replace JMP?

If you are developing one, please reply and advertise it here!

    Unfortunately, Video Core Next isn’t listed in Jellyfin’s hardware acceleration list. I tried AMD iGPU passthrough with VA-API, but ran into issues. It seems I need to figure out:

    1. How are people on Firefox not having to transcode? Do they just not use mkv’s or h265? Looking at the documentation, Firefox will need to do transcode, which lines up with what I’m seeing on my end.
    2. I need to figure out how to get iGPU to work so transcoding doesn’t hurt the server so much.

        You may be right going off this.

        Also this is hilarious:

        Looks like I’ll be looking into a dedicated gpu, and AMD isn’t recommended, so it’ll be Nvidia.

          Before you run off and get Nvidia, take serious consideration of the Intel ARC line. They’re relatively cheap and have great transcoding performance. They’re supported by Linux out of the box, and I had no problem getting docker passthrough enabled. Unlike Nvidia the drivers don’t have built-in limits for how many simultaneous streams you can transcode.
