    Jellyfin for me sucks. Not the server, the client. It works great on my wife’s machine but whenever I wanna watch something I get constant issues with crashing and seeking not working.

      This is why I’ve stuck with Emby.

      I get why people switched, and I’m open to it eventually, but Emby is much more polished. That’s not to say the Emby clients don’t also crash from time to time.

      Sounds like a transcoding issue which AFAIK can depend on the machine you try to play this with. Doesn’t really solve your problem other than next time get something that’s better at playing more video formats, which is a hilarious and silly problem to have these days.
