    Haven't had any problems up until now, my raspberry pi 4b+ apparently can't transcode fast enough to keep up but shouldn't the native app be able to direct play anyway?
    Thanks

    Can you share your server logs and ffmpeg logs? Is your LG TV Android tv or webos?

    WebOS, is there a particular part of the logs you want or just the whole lot?

    Hey Frosty, I've found that WebOS TVs don't natively support direct playback of 10-bit h.265 files. This seems to be a limitation of the TV hardware, as if you use the WebOS built-in DLNA playing you'll notice it won't play 10-bit files either. To get around this I bought a Walmart Onn GoogleTV box and use the GoogleTV Jellyfin client for 10-bit content. It's not as sleek as the Jellyfin web UI and it is a bit of an annoyance having to use two separate apps, but it gets the job done, and I think it was only like $20. It's been a while since I've ran into the issue as I've avoided using 10-bit content, but I can't remember if this just applies to 4K or if it's 1080p as well.

    Thanks buddy I guess that explains it.
    I'll just avoid 10bit from now.
