That is the main jellyfin log. There should be logs in there that start with "ffmpeg".
RE: No GPU transcoding - Ubuntu Server, NVidia P400 - Woelfchen - 2023-10-05
No, only those
RE: No GPU transcoding - Ubuntu Server, NVidia P400 - TheDreadPirate - 2023-10-05
The log you shared does have any video playback activity. Can you watch a video with the problem you described and share the updated log? Also, what kind of playback device you playing the video on?

Playing on an AndroidTV (Android Tablet has the same problem)
I guess thats the interesting part:

Whatever is going on, the client is the problem. The server is direct playing.
There's nothing special or unusual about the codecs or bit rate of the video.
What models are your Android TV/Tablet clients?
RE: No GPU transcoding - Ubuntu Server, NVidia P400 - Woelfchen - 2023-10-05
Xiaomi MiPad5 with Android 13
Sony AndroidTV KD-49XE9005 with Jellyfin App on Android 9

On the tablet give the Findroid client a whirl. But the Snapdragon 860 is more than capable of playing your content. So not entirely sure what is going on.
I'm having trouble finding documentation for the MT5891 chipset in that TV. IMO, you might be better off just getting a Chromecast with Google TV or some other dongle.
Can you also do a speed test? The browser in your tablet should be fine to run this.
