From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I liked Jellyfin when I tested it last year but it had 3 show stoppers for me.

Samsung app was flakey and had to be side loaded.
Each profile had to use a password and had a full keyboard to enter. Needs a no password option, and a pin pad option.
Not everything played successfully.

Have any of these things been fixed?

Not sure what you mean by that. Jellyfin has had an up to date version in the play store for years.
Yes every Profile is separated into its own account, that's by design and will most likely never change. An easy PIN option in the local network existed for years. Now you can even login with your phone app by entering a displayed PIN.
I remember very few media that i had issues with in the past. Depending on the transcode hardware you have some things can be tricky

They are talking about the Samsung Tizen app for Samsung TVs.
