I tried this for the first time a few days ago and it seems pretty good.
If you hold the selection button on a movie/show theres an option to "Play with transcoding" which helped solve a lot of problems for me when playing things on older hardware in situations where the official Jellyfin app would incorrectly try to direct play content that actually wasnt compatible.
Long history of releases and Bugfixes, No AI contributions at first glance ... Could it be?!

Love it, integrating jelly seer means my partner can just discover shows and add them
We need a good tvOS client
You misspelled spyos.
Infuse is great...
If you pay. I'd love an alternative tho
Holy crap, this looks amazing. Has anyone tried it?
I've been using it for a couple months. It's been great, for the most part
What about the lesser part... what happened?
On the Nvidia Shield the MPV backend doesn't really work, it has an issue with stuttering. Works great on my other TV, though. Besides that, just a few crashes early on, nothing recently, though.
I discovered wholphin several months ago and so far it's been fantastic for an Android tv client. The intent of the design is to be similar in UI to Plex and it achieves that very well even in it's early development.
I'd easily say it's the most polished client I've seen to date from a UI perspective even though I know there are some bugs people see (although they seem minor). For most people switching others from Plex to Jellyfin, the app is a great option.
Neat, are there any other clients for Android TV aside from the official one?
Fladder was working on it, but last I tried it was still too unstable to use
Nice, I had no idea
I tried out Fladder, Moonfin, and Wholphin
I replaced Findroid with Wholphin on ours
Can this be installed on Samsung TVs?
