Best Client:Nivida Sheild Pro Or Apple TV

[Bladefin]

Needing to replace my Firestick, I was wondering what the better client is for Jellyfin?

I would recommnd a Raspberry pi 4 or 5 with ssd (pi5 has ability to use m2 nvme ssd) - and install LibreElec + JellyCon

Good suggestion but I will be also using it for my streaming services netflix etc..

I use an Apple TV 4K with the Infuse app hooked to my jellyfin server and it is pure bliss. Direct plays everything I've ever thrown at it. But I am also not using video files with lossless audio codecs. That's the one thing the shield has over the Apple TV

Is there anything that AppleTV has over the Shield? Doesn't sound like they are ever going to bring out a new model for the Shield.

I dont have Netflix etc., but there should be a addon. You can install Kodi on your computer and add the Netflix addon for testing.

Your tv remote should also work fine to navigate around on LibreElec

Thanks but I'm more interested in AppleTV or Sheild Pro

I have nvidia shield 2015 model and it plays everything except movies that are with dolby vision only (no hdr), those have weird colors (obviously), but plays fine every sound codec. I think the newest model nvidia shield pro can play dolby vision. Everyone recommends the pro, not the tube.

I do hear good things about the Sheild Pro but I had also read that it does suffer from motion judder and manually setting the frame rate or maybe that's been fixed now?

So let me get this right the Shield has a dedicated Jellyfin app but with AppleTV there is no Jellyfin app, you have you use Apples own video player Infuse.
