Integrating Jellyfin with Third-Party Media Players: Are There Any Limitations? - James Wilson - 2025-09-25
Hi everyone,
I am trying to develop a client for Jellyfin and would like to integrate it with some third-party media players (like VLC or MPV) instead of just using the default player. I was wondering if anyone has tried this? Are there any API limitations or DRM issues that I should be aware of? I would like to understand how to design the client optimally.
Thanks everyone in advance!
