    1 project | /r/jellyfin | 5 Apr 2022
    It would be great if that functionality could be integrated directly into the jellyfin server and apps. libzt has good support for all the languages that jellyfin and it's clients use.

    Basically you have to make it work within the LAN yourself, then you can use Zerotier (or even libzt) to make it work over the internet.
