Anyone successfully using Nebula Capsule? - Steve Klett - 2023-12-10

I apologize if this is the incorrect category to post this question, please let me know if there is a more appropriate one.

I own and love a little Anker Nebula Capsule. It's an Android powered mini projector. For years I had been planning to setup a Plex server, but recently before pulling the trigger I read about their requirement to create a "Plex Account" and that killed it for me, I then found JellyFin! JellyFin sounds like a great fit for me and I began the process of learning and testing it out. First order of business was to try and get the JellyFIN client working on my Nebula. I rooted the device, installed the JellyFin client app and connected to the jellyfin demo server. That's when things became painful.

Not blaming the app at all. I'm new to Android and JellyFin so I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. The main issues I had right away were:
  1. Cursor is barely visible, it flickers in and out and I struggled to find the right region to "click" on to control the client - this may be a Nebula issue
  2. Using my keyboard to control the JellyFin app didn't work well. I couldn't tab around or arrow-key navigate the screens. It was strange, it was as if none of the widgets had focus.
  3. When I finally did get "night of the living dead" selected and playing, there was no sound and the frame rate was .1 FPS? Maybe? 

At that point I stopped and thought I'd try to find any community members that have been through this process and learned how to succeed with JellyFin and a Nebula Capsule. Maybe it's not possible?

So... long story short, has anyone out there managed to get JellyFin working well on a Nebula Capsule?
