Based on random issues I've seen other users have with the synocommunity version of jellyfin, I'm thinking there is something about the syncommunity "app" of jellyfin that is causing this issue. Some people can't transcode with the syno app. Some people can't direct play with the syno app. Switching to the official docker image resolved those issues.
For the record, the synocommunity app is not an official release. We have no idea if they changed anything. Even doing something as simple as wrapping the official image in Ubuntu, ala LSIO Jellyfin, has been documented to cause weird behaviors.
