Make sure you are also re-encoding the audio. AC3, DD, and DTS may not play on a lot of devices. Transcoding audio isn't super demanding, but we are trying to avoid transcoding of any kind. Stereo AAC plays on everything.
Say I didn’t want to go back and convert my entire library again.
Would my NAS be capable of transcoding the audio? If yes, how would I go about setting that up?

Probably. This happens automatically.

I ran into something similar when I tried streaming over Tailscale on my phone from my workplace break room, but the weird thing was that the Jellyfin Android app wouldn't play, but when I opened the web client in Firefox, the stream started no problem. Reading this thread I thought maybe it was a codec compatibility issue between the player the app was using and the Firefox native player, but if that was the case, the video wouldn't play on my phone at home, and I just tried and it was fine.
