From what I've gathered in other posts regarding Plex and jellyfin, the ones that never learned how to port forward or any other alternative solution for getting external traffic to their internal server. All the complaints I've read here regarding jellyfin boiled down to them relying on the Plex relay to handle the traffic for them.
Anecdote but ive been hosting Plex for family members for 10+ years. I tried the Jellyfin switch. Compared to Plex the Jellyfin apps are pretty bad, and I had a ton of performance problems with the remote streaming as well. Its just not ready for that use case. Family members begged me to go back to Plex.
My family at home and myself, we are using Jellyfin currently. It works OK for home use but there are days I want to go back to Plex. Its just a more polished experience.
Jellyfin definitely does not feel like it's a finished product yet, no. I run both and Plex feels a lot more polished. It has automatic collections, duplicate detection, cleaner design, etc.
Two things I hate about Plex.
Other than these things, Plex all day. I wish it weren't so. 😩
I don't use the WebOS app but generally default subtitles/audio languages are set on your profile and the apps pick up those settings.
Try logging in to the web interface and going to your user profile. There is a "Playback" section where you can set your preferred languages. If this isn't set it likely is taking the default language from your media files instead.
It works fine on mobile and on the web interface via the same server, so it's definitely a problem with the TV version of Plex, unfortunately.
Thank you for trying to help though. ❤️
How long ago? Jlufin is fine for remote streaming. Besides setup haven't noticed any difference. Well besides auto might not always work.
