    This is required (for most browsers) to have proper HEVC and AV1 support. On some browser (like Firefox) it might cause compatibility issue. If you don't see problems with that enabled you just leave it as is.

    @gnattu - Thanks for responding. So it's probably something I can ignore for Jellyfin Roku or Jellyfin Android TV?
