Heya, does anyone have experiences with using a pi4 as a Jellyfin media server? I'd like to set it up like that. Do you think a regular external HDD would work as storage space? Will it be possible to have like 3 to 4 devices streaming at the same time?Recommendations for tutorials are highly appreciated!

If you are on android, you can go into settings and set VLC as the standard media player. You miss out on resume and watched functionality of course. But it does help in many cases!

For me, it sometimes works best to just not worry about the app and just open it in the browser (pin it to home for ease of access). Somehow the media player is a little more compatible that way.
