I have tried messing with all kinds of settings for a while now, but it just seems that streaming with JellyFin makes the video pixelated no matter what settings I change.
- On Plex, the video is directly streaming instead of transcoding so quality is original (I don't understand why JellyFin forces transcoding but whatever...)
- The transcoded output from JellyFin is always pixelated, which is not the case on Plex.
- Look at the embedded pictures for comparison
