Install Kodi as well as the Jellyfin client.
Some older files just won't play otherwise.
Shield doesn't use AV1 so don't download any of those.
AV1 works fine since Kodi 20.x on my Shield 2015.
Really? Didn't on my 2019 Pro. Did about 1 frame a second for a few seconds and then crashed the whole box.
Could have been a malformed video I suppose, but VLC played it fine on my PC.
Maybe it's just not hardware accelerated so only lower spec videos work?
IIRC it was 720p content. VLC was how I was playing the files until I upgraded from 19.x to 20.x
Yeah, mine was 4K HDR and it was not a happy bunny at all.
lower res, low bitrate AV1 can be decoded in software pretty well (<1080p animation etc) but with high bitrate 4k AV1 it cant get anywhere near 24fps.
Makes sense. I think it was 720p media
