jellyfin-mpv-shim VS jellyfin-mpv-shim

https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-desktop/issues/154#issuecomment-808887313

For a standalone player, you can try Jellyfin Desktop or Jellyfin Media Player.

I have Ubuntu 18.04 and Jellyfin Desktop installed using the instructions. When I run shim, I was able to connect to my server by adding my ip address and admin login credentials for Jellyfin.

You can use MPV.

I have no idea, no one has had this issue before. You could try sending logs: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-desktop/wiki/Sending-Logs

Please send logs: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-desktop/wiki/Sending-Logs

Please try this release, as it solved the "Failed to execute script run-desktop" for another user: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-desktop/releases/tag/v1.10.3

jellyfin-desktop or jellyfin-kodi

You could try Jellyfin-MPV-Shim but it’s not much of a UI and I don’t know if the playback will be any different from Jellyfin Media Player. Same thing about playback goes for JellyPlayer.

You mean something better than Jellyfin Media Player? It works pretty great for me on my Mac. Some people like Jellyfin-MPV-Shim but I don’t think it’s much of a UI.

As others have said, MPV Shim is another option on PC that also uses the same player as JMP. It has more options too that you use for the player like enabling shaders, video aspect ratio changes, volume gain changes, and so forth. Though it works as a hidden player that only appears when you cast to it.

Support IPv6 addressing with a protocol prefix (#306)

Fix endless video skipping with auto profiles. (#323)

I'm wondering if there is a bug in the Jellyfin server that is causing remote control connections to get lost. I had to put some really aggressive self-healing logic into MPV Shim to get it to stay connected reliably. This doesn't exist in web so JMP may suffer these reliability issues.

I use Jellyfin MPV Shim with uosc and thumbfast.
