Got a fairly new setup going, and I love it...when it works. Half the time, I open my Jellyfin clients and it permanently hangs on loading anything. On my computers I can still access the files via network folders, so everything it connected. I'm mostly curious if this is a known issue or if I messed something up.

Edit: Solved, it was a networking issue and a transcoding issue.

Direct play is the goal really. Audio transcoding is fine, but if you can avoid Video transcoding you should not have any skipping

Right, the problem is my phone when out of the house

Yeah, to help with that you would need multiple versions of the video and you can select say 720p when not on home network. Its a bit of work :(
