Probably a dumb question. I know a NAS can output video directly via HDMI with various players, but can it run a Jellyfish server and client to play 4k video at the same time?
My PC can obviously run the server and play video. I just wanted to double check this would also work on a NAS.
My problem is the Jellyfin app on my Roku TV cannot handle high bitrate 4k DV playback. The TV does DV/HDR10+ fine. The typical streaming apps have no problem streaming in DV. Plex and Jellyfin both fail.
My other option would be a firecube w/coreelec and then put jellyfin player on that, but if I can just run it directly off the NAS that would be easier.
