Hi,
I have a movie that I am trying to play with jellyfin. I needed to turn transcoding off, but the client (LG G2) then says it can't play the file.
Which normally is fair enough, but I noticed, that the same file can be played by the G2 via dlna (hosted by kodi).
I am new to this so this might be a stupid question, but: is that normal? I thought dlna just hands the file over to the client? But then it shouldn't be able to play the file.
Are there some options I can try within jellyfin(besides transcoding) so that the file can be played anyway?
Thanks!
