Jellyfin Solve My Problem? - ChaoscripT - 2025-09-23

Hi,
I don't know if "Problem" is the right word, but here is my situation.
I have NVIDIA Shield Pro streamer that connect to it via USB SSD with some local content (TV Shows/Movies), to run these I use VLC Player.
I also have IPTV (m3u8 URL) that I use Televizo app to run this.
My question is if I can "connect" between them and run in one app and more nicely GUI?

Regards.

You could use Jellyfin but you'd need a server of some sorts to run it on (something simple like a Raspberry pi would do).

For what you've described Kodi would be a simpler solution. It's available in the play store and combined with the IPTV Simple Client addon will do what you want.

Kodi is an excellent media player but there is a learning curve to it and you'll need to hide a lot of stuff in the UI to make it look clean.

Thanks for reply,
I can't install server on the NVIDIA and also the user?

From what I read, Kodi's IPTV add on don't handle good the IPTV, so I thought maybe Jellyfin will works good with that.
