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!

    unless everyone is using hardware acceleration

    I think that’s what (almost) everyone does. My little N100 works just fine with QSV.

      Intel processor N100? Isn’t hardware acceleration for GPUs? Or am I misunderstanding.

        Isn’t hardware acceleration for GPUs?

        Not necessarily, in this case they’re referring to Intel’s QuickSync (Video) - or QSV for short, which is Intel’s way of doing video encoding/decoding on dedicated hardware in the CPU. On the AMD side, there is Video Core Next although I’m not very well versed with the video encode/decode side of things so I’m not sure how it stacks up with QSV.

          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.
