Comment on Poor video playback quality on Kodi

• AtariDump@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Jellyfin has:

  A dedicated music app?
  Music filtering/smart playlists? Sonic analysis?
  Good 4k/x265 performance?
  Has a third party (or built in) utility that shows me streaming usage per person?
  Allows me to limit remote users to streaming from a single IP address at a time?
  Let’s me watch something together with another remote user?
  Has an app for most any device (like Plex or Emby) that does NOT require sideloading?
  Has built in native DVR steaming/recording support?

    Dedicated music app: Not 1st party. But there are projecty like Finamp and Gelli
    Music filtering? Not that I am aware of. Just basic functionality
    Sonic analysis? No. Sounds like a very specific use case
    4k amd/or 265.h performance? You mean transcoding? If yes: Just as much as ffmpeg can utilize your GPU.
    Utility to see usage per person? Nope. Basic usage stats though
    Limit remote user? No. But That can be probably coded if theres enough demand.
    Watch Together? Yep. But never had a reason to try it so YMMV
    Has an app? The 1st party on is on anything that has Android on it (Android mobile and TV)
    Native DVR? Yes but I can’t really gauge how good it works.

      Ok

      Music filtering? Not that I am aware of. Just basic functionality

      That’s something people use fairly frequently (generate a music playlist from all albums with “Christmas” in the title)

      Sonic analysis? No. Sounds like a very specific use case

      It’s not; I’m guessing you don’t know what it is so hand waved it away as something people don’t use.

      4k amd/or 265.h performance? You mean transcoding? If yes: Just as much as ffmpeg can utilize your GPU.

      Nope; how is the 4k and x265 playback experience.

      Utility to see usage per person? Nope. Basic usage stats though

      That’s not great.

      Limit remote user? No. But That can be probably coded if theres enough demand.

      I have that with a 3rd party utility with Plex.

      Watch Together? Yep. But never had a reason to try it so YMMV

      Great

      Has an app? The 1st party on is on anything that has Android on it (Android mobile and TV)

      What about Samsung TVs? Roku? AppleTV? Firestick? TIZEN?

      Native DVR? Yes but I can’t really gauge how good it works.

    Jellyfin does have watch party support now, though it’s currently in beta

    Streaming usage per person is available via one of the stats plugins, but it is admittedly crude and missing some info (such as bandwidth used).

    I’m using the android app without issues, which didn’t require side loading, but my experience with other platforms is zero.

  It’s been trash previously, but became fully usable in the past 2 years or so. Still has a lot of playback issues, but works in most cases.
