Brilliant UI, Playback Not So Much
Changing audio or subtitles causes buffering. Skipping forward buffers noticeably whereas other apps play instantly.
Opening media (even with forced landscape mode on) rapidly glitches between portrait and landscape mode for 3 seconds.
Beautiful exterior, rotting interior. The priorities have been completely switched compared to Swiftfin. Such a shame, the frontend ui developer on the team has true talent but is held back by a vibe coded playback engine. Swiftfin is open source, how could this be the part you get wrong?

Thanks for your feedback and the kind words about the UI! Please make sure to check out the latest update, as the playback engine has received several improvements. Switching audio tracks or subtitles should no longer cause buffering, and playback performance and stability have also been improved. If you're still experiencing any issues, feel free to reach out on our Discord or submit a bug report at https://jellytv.app/tickets. I'm actively working on improving the playback experience, and detailed reports really help me track down and fix remaining issues. Thanks again for giving JellyTV a try!
Absolument génial !!!
Response from developer
Un immense merci pour ton retour et ton soutien ! Ça fait vraiment plaisir de voir que le soin apporté à l'interface et à l'intégration dans l'écosystème Apple est apprécié ! Le support de macOS est dans les plans mais je ne peux pas encore annoncer de date. Il reste encore beaucoup de choses à améliorer et à ajouter à JellyTV, et ce genre de retour me motive énormément à continuer. Merci encore !
Integrates with iOS/iPadOS/TvOS Masterfully

Making JellyTV feel like a truly native Apple app while adding thoughtful features that make the everyday experience better has always been one of my main goals, so hearing this is incredibly rewarding! There's still so much more I want to bring to JellyTV, and feedback like yours keeps me motivated to make it even better. Thanks again for your recommendation and for being part of the journey!
Update broke the app
Response from developer
Sorry about the audio cutting out after the update, and thank you for reporting the exact timing. Could you contact me through JellyTV’s support with your tvOS version, whether the picture continues when the sound stops, and whether it affects every file or just one? If possible, include a photo of Playback Information and your audio setup (TV speakers, soundbar/receiver, or HomePods). These details will help me investigate the Apple TV playback issue.
Most incredible Jellyfin client of all time
