          On the Nvidia Shield the MPV backend doesn’t really work, it has an issue with stuttering. Works great on my other TV, though. Besides that, just a few crashes early on, nothing recently, though.

      I discovered wholphin several months ago and so far it’s been fantastic for an Android tv client. The intent of the design is to be similar in UI to Plex and it achieves that very well even in it’s early development.

      I’d easily say it’s the most polished client I’ve seen to date from a UI perspective even though I know there are some bugs people see (although they seem minor). For most people switching others from Plex to Jellyfin, the app is a great option.

    Long history of releases and Bugfixes, No AI contributions at first glance … Could it be?!

    Neat, are there any other clients for Android TV aside from the official one?

    Fladder was working on it, but last I tried it was still too unstable to use

    I tried this for the first time a few days ago and it seems pretty good.

    If you hold the selection button on a movie/show theres an option to “Play with transcoding” which helped solve a lot of problems for me when playing things on older hardware in situations where the official Jellyfin app would incorrectly try to direct play content that actually wasnt compatible.

    I have been using Wholphin over the official Jellyfin Android TV client for months now. I have trouble with some Dolby Vision content with the official one. Wholphin is able to play those files fine. Wholphin has an in app updater that makes it really easy to update. No need to touch the Play Store (or even have it enabled lol). I appreciate all the work that goes into Jellyfin and Wholphin allows me to get the most out of my server.

    Been using Wholphin for a few months now and its been great. Like it alot better than the official Jellyfin app, although the official app is still good too.
