More options for Live TV deinterlacing?

[marshalleq]

I came here looking for a solution for this and found a partial one in the process. I have just installed Jellyfin for the first time this weekend and found that I'm getting the above happening (both deinterlaced content on certain channels and staggering panning scenes, non-smooth motion in other directions as well, lagging audio etc on my Mac with Live TV streams but not on my iPad. It works OK with pre-recorded media I've tried so far, which is progressive. The Mac is an M1 the server is a threadripper the tv tuner is an hd homerun. Hardware transcoding didn't make much difference, but I did find in the client settings that de-interlace was disabled, despite it being enabled on the server. So that helped most of it, however it's still a bit laggy in places. I'll keep using it for a while before posting too much about it. These things need to bed down a bit.

EDIT: I eventually found that using Jellyfin Mobile from the Mac App Store doesn't have this issue, whereas Jellyfin Media Player for MacOS does. So that at least is a good workaround.
