his issue is usually caused by the Android TV client failing autodiscovery after a Jellyfin update. Try these quick fixessteal a brainrot
Add the server manually using the LAN IP and port (http://IP:8096
) — don’t use hostname.
If you use HTTPS, enable “Allow insecure connections” in the Android TV app.
Disable IPv6 on the Android TV box (common autodiscovery bug).
If Jellyfin is in Docker bridge mode, try network_mode: host.
Clear the Android TV app cache + data and reopen it.
In most cases, manually adding the IP or disabling IPv6 fixes it.
