This is what will get me to try this an a potential alternative to Plex. I need native apps to even consider a replacement. Glad this is here. Best of luck!

- bjord 3y agoCan I ask why, out of curiosity? Does that remain true if it's built using the web version and electron (which this is)?
- starttoaster 3y agoI get the need for native apps on media centers, like Roku, Apple TV, etc. I do not understand why anybody would need a native app on desktop. Let alone an unofficial closed-source one from a dev that only has this to say: > This is unofficial client for jellyfin app. For now macos only. Very early build. Expect any kind of crashes, issues and generally its good if it even runs. Source: https://github.com/avdept/JellyBox https://github.com/avdept/JellyBox
- avdept 3y agoI'm working on this in my spare time, and making up readme file is the last thing on my list. If you're willing to help with readme I can surely provide you all needed information, screenshots and anything else you'd need
- artogahr 3y agoNeither Firefox nor Chrome support H.265 hw-accelerated decoding, and I don't want to use Edge. Using the app is a guarantee that I don't have to worry about the codec compatibility. I know it's an "Electron app so basically browser", but it's not, everything just works in the official Desktop app.
- oliwarner 3y agoChrome only has hardware decoding. Has done for a year. Firefox is the only browser that won't play HEVC. Now AV1 is here, I guess we'll all move everything to that.
