Is Jellyfin right for me? - Zsolt Raduska - 2024-04-25

Dear Community!

I am thinking on leaving pley behind and I am considering jellyfin.
Does Jellyfin support skipping intros and outros?
Does Jellyfin support season and episode level extras on tv shows? So, I would see all the behind the scenes extras under an episode, and all other extras under the season?
Does Jellyfin's android client support downloading transcoded video? 
Does plex support transcoding on nvidia gpus?

Intros only, at this time.  Work is being done to also support skipping outros.

My understanding is that Jellyfin can go down to Season level extras.

No.  AFAIK there are no first party or third party clients that support downloading transcoded video.  Finamp, and only for the beta, is the only client that supports transcoded downloads but it is music only.

I'm assuming you meant Jellyfin, and yes.

And HWA transcoding is free.  :-)
