    If Jellyfin is running on the same computer you have the browser open on, "localhost" is valid. But if you are on another PC, that won't work since "localhost" is the loopback address. Meaning it is a reference to itself. It is not an actual host name.

    You need to use the LAN IP of the server when on another PC. http://192.68.XX.XX:8096 or whatever your LAN IP actually is.
