    1. Different versions of WebOS?
    Yes, the LG 55C6V has WebOS 2.0 or possibly 2.5, while the other LG has WebOS 5.0.


    2. Probably not.
    When Plex uses "Direct Play", it doesn't use its own playback engine but rather the WebOS playback engine, just like when playing content from a USB drive. Therefore, the behavior of Plex and Jellyfin should be similar in this regard, but Jellyfin seems to have an issue that causes remuxing instead of direct playback.



    Some of the movies are old, with outdated codecs instead of modern ones. The LG 55C6V TV is capable of playing everything, but Jellyfin performs remuxing without reason, and this is not correct. I’ve checked that the problem is with Jellyfin since the movies play fine via DLNA. It might be helpful if the developers could check several playback logs to pinpoint the cause of the unnecessary remuxing.
