Jellyfin Desktop

Note

We're in the process of replacing the Qt-based desktop client with a complete rewrite built on SDL and CEF. It's still in active development, but we welcome (and appreciate) any testing or reporting of issues. Development is happening at jellyfin-desktop-cef.

Jellyfin desktop client built with Qt WebEngine and libmpv. Supports audio passthrough, hardware decoding, and playback of more formats without transcoding.
