Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I've been using it for a little while now - I prefer the UI of the official app, but Wholphin is the only way I can consistently and properly play everything in my library with 0 transcoding.
I have a ShieldTV+AVR setup that can handle every media format out there, but for some reason the default app always transcoded Atmos & DTS audio (or just refuses to play if I disable transcoding entirely).
Wholphin does not have this issue, and now everything plays flawlessly with 0 overhead.
Might be a jellyfin setting. I discovered that while the players report the device capabilities (with some caveats), some edge cases make the server still transcode video because it instructs certain formats to always transcode. There are too many variables and the server plays it safe. The biggest culprit is bitrate.
Have everything set to max (AndroidTV is wired, easy gigabit rates to NAS). I've tried literally every setting I can think of and it just continually spits back transcodes for DTS & DA content.
Doesnt matter if video is 4k HDR Remux or 1080p encode.
It's the second most commented open issue on the Jellyfin Android TV Github (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-androidtv/issues/281). If you can crack the case you'll make a lot of people happy :D
