I wanted to self-host Jellyfin, but hit the problem.
It's bad at the main thing that player should offer - media playback.
If you open https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/clients/codec-support/ you can see that this doesn't support HDR and that doesn't support H265.
There is Jellyfin Desktop and it breaks when display scaling is over 100% (what year is it?). Some clients have atrocious subtitle support. And then none of them apparently can't properly pace frames so I still see judder as if I'm on 60 Hz screen (24->60 can't be even translation). But my screen can do up to 165 Hz, so that should never be the issue.
In then I just went back to playing media files from Samba share with MPC + madVR. No automation or catalogization or anything, but it is supreme at actually displaying things, and that's what it's important to me.
