So what will you use as your Jellyfin client then? Roku?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Dunno. I've come to rely on the "cast" functionality from my Android, but finding a FOSS client with even similar functionality is proving difficult.

Chromecast will continue to work, until it doesn't. I'll use that time to test some options and see where I land.

Roku is fucking terrible now. I’m not who you asked but I switched off of Roku to an Apple TV and it’s by far the best device you can use unless you’re building something completely custom.

Just to clarify, the Jellifin app for Roku is pretty good and has been improving a ton the last year in particular. But yeah, Roku itself is it's own can of worms

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Oh sorry, yeah. No clue about the app but Roku is in the shitter as far as I’m concerned.
