How is Jellyfin on Apple TV 4K? (lemmy.world)

I'm currently a Plex user and access it from Apple TV's. I find this is a smooth and stable experience that everyone in the house enjoys and is comfortable. I also use PlexAmp on laptops, mobile and CarPlay.

I am interested in Jellyfin and am wondering if I can expect any hurdles or rough edges moving over?

EDIT: Thanks all for the great feedback and suggestions. I think I will give it a try in parallel with Influx and see if it's worth the $100 lifetime purchase.

In the exact same boat, I’d love to know what apps people are using (tvOS & iOS)? I don’t have Plex accessible from outside my LAN (I use DirectPlay most of the time), but I do download to my iPhone/iPad with the Plex app for when I travel. Considering the questionable decisions Plex keeps making, I’m leaning towards switching to Jellyfin.

I use Infuse on all my Apple devices - iPhone, iPad, AppleTV

Did you need to buy Infuse Pro or does the free version work for most use cases?

[–] westingham@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

Free Infuse works just fine. If you want the higher quality audio/video like 4K or Dolby, then you need to pay for Pro. Honestly, the app is so good, I paid for Pro even though I only watch 1080p video and stereo audio.
