browsers are not good jellyfin clients
chrome does not support mkv
you can attempt the listed codecs from chromium https://www.chromium.org/audio-video
but you will soon find out that mobile and desktop versions of chrome are no where near the same
this is the total point of jellyfin transcoding, so that it can serve every client with a compatible format "on-the-fly" from a single source file; re-encoding to suite the client completely defeats the purpose and you may as well just use a basic http server
Yes, I'm aware of this, but in this case is a thing for work, and i need to stream like 30 streams from my laptop to chrome browsers, and it's not any high definition things, it's 720p stream, but my laptop cant do the transcoding for all those streams.
My home jellyfin only have connected direct-play capable clients, so there is no need for transcoding on that server.
Thank you so much for the link, I'll check into it and do some different encodings to try to find one that works.
