I have installed Jellyfin using pacman on EndeavourOS on a machine with the following specs:
On that same machine I installed the official Jellyfin Media Player via flatpak and noticed a lot of heavy stuttering (and also way worse sound) when playing 4K video.
If I just use the Gnome File Manager and browse to the same video and start it using the Gnome Video Player, it both plays and sounds fine.
Some internet searching tells me to "turn off transcoding", but I can't find the setting for it. The Help button on that very same page also mentioned "direct play" which sounds like what I want, but still I can't see it amongst the available settings.
What am I missing?
