i've searched for that aswell and never found anything.. only stuff like bubbleupnp that does the same trick with using screen recording to stream it...
Huh interesting, thanks for the info ✌️

Sadly, most big competetive online games actually do ban Linux players and then state afterwards that this is something they will continue to do because yadayadayada Linux unsupported...

never played the game, what shady stuff so you mean?
Also i find that the speed of scanning, getting metadata, accuracy of linking metadata and files, the whole music section is lacking on jellyfin comparing to Plex
Still I prefer jellyfin as its free and open source and it does what I want it to do. But in my experience Plex did all of this way better, faster, more accurately and reliable.... And jellyfin music category is outright unusable compared to plex
I am talking solely about the server side, not the player side.
Obviously a good functioning player will not need hw accellerated transcoding or hdr conversion. But sometimes that's simply neither possible or feasable. Some hardware simply cannot properly transcode all formats, or don't allow for installation of a player that can do that. Sometimes i watch a movie on my laptop while being connected to my phone mobile hotspot and using wireguard to phone home, i don't want to direct stream a full movie in hdr and 1080p 40mbit/s... i want the server to transcode it properly.
So to conclude - i am talking about serverside, not playerside - stop assuming the person you are talking with doesn't know what they do simply because you think you know better.
No i am not talking about the player as hw accell and hdr conversion runs on the server itself
The server is not bulletproof and in my experience plex ran better for me than jellyfin.
I have to say, Plex is a much more polished and more reliable piece of software in my experience.
I've used Plex for a couple of years and even got myself a lifetime premium pass when it was 65% reduced or something. But when news started popping up about them potentially leaking what content you watch i burned that bridge (look at the instance i come from, you can guess where my content stems from :D)
I then migrated over to jellyfin. It's not as polished, it doesn't run that reliable for me as plex did, hw accell, hdr convertion didn't setup as easy but after a lot of tinkering it now works very fine for me.
I really enjoy jellyfin and the ecosystem that evolved around it.
I switched from Plex to jellyfin solely for that reason
Also hw accell being free in jelly aswell
Works perfectly fine for me on all available frontends and the voyager app on android
They're selling the hardware at a loss and make up by selling data.
If don't fear to sail the high seas, you can completely lock the device out of the internet and simply sideload the games and apps from your PC.
That way you can use one of the best bang for your buck VR devices, enjoy all the games AND actively made Meta lose money
