  for my use case, jellyfin is only used for mobile clients. i have some semi-custom addons for kodi for the in house screens.

    I’m surprised the client doesn’t support switching between servers. When I had jellyfin running I exposed it through traefik to allow external playback. Figure it would make sense that you could just show multiple servers in the UI. Add several reverse proxied addresses and boom.

      Then I have multiple jellyfin servers in the app… That’s not what I want, I want a single mount where all the media of all nodes is accessible

      yeah, that might work for what op is tryin to do, maybe, assuming jellyfin fits his client needs

      You definitely can. Idk why the commentor above you thinks its local only?

      I have two severs I swap between exactly like you describe.
