    Hi everyone,
    I currently use Jellyfin exclusively for listening to music. Now, I want to start watching movies and TV as well. I’ve digitized the movies myself, and they are in HEVC/H.265 format. I’ve added IPTV as an M3U tuner, which works. In Jellyfin, I’ve set up a Quadro P620 with the latest NVIDIA driver. I know it’s not the best card, but it should be sufficient for now, I think.
    I’ve enabled hardware acceleration in Jellyfin, and the movies run well on the desktop client under Linux.
    For my music on Jellyfin, I use Finamp (Beta) on my Android. Besides the stock app for movies and TV, is there any good Android app that you would recommend?

    with best

    I use the native jellyfin android app only for monitoring, configuration and administration.
    For viewing my content, be it movies, anime or series, I use Findroid, it's quite simple, user friendly and not very consuming, besides being well supported by the jellyfin community.
