Hello fellow selfhosters! I reformatted my USB hard drive from exFAT to XFS because I needed a filesystem that could handle hardlinks. I remounted the hard drive and now jellyfin webUI has a severe stuttering problem on some videos, all of them are MKV but it may be a coincidence. On android (using exoplayer) the same files works smoothly. what could be the problem?
in the logs I get a bunch of Slow HTTP Response from http://fedoraserver:8096/ to 192.168.1.30 in 0:00:07.4635856 with Status Code 200
OT: while looking at the logs this happened
SOLUTION: I enabled hardware acceleration, and manually selected also the HEVC
and Allow encoding in HEVC format
settings, and now the stutter disappeared! thanks to everyone for your help!!!
server. it was choking on decoding
But I know of people running jellyfin on a raspberry, I have an old laptop but it’s not that old… There’srno way to run it smoothly?
yeah, re-encode to a lighter encoding like 264. might be slightly larger, but less work for the cpu
