Sorry folks but I spoke a bit too soon!
Jellyfin server on Xubuntu 24.04 works great to show all video files in my libraries and plays music with no problems at all.
However, photographs in jpg format will not play at all on my LG TV WebOS client jellyfin app and unfortunately photo display is essential for me. I have searched these forums and there seems to no easy or simple way to overcome this basic problem for me.
Surely photo display shouldn't be a bigger problem than videos.
I have installed the dlna plugin to see if that helps but the TV is in use for other things at the moment so I can't test it yet, though it certainly works in VLC UP&P so I'm hopeful even though it requires a completely different sequence of keys on the TV Remote.
I will update this when I have a chance to test everything but would appreciate any other thoughts on why photo display is such a problem; Emby showed these same photos with no problem.
