Android is inside my TV, nothing external

I have no idea what OP is talking about here, it sounds like they're only judging the app on its animation speed.

In the plex PLAYER, I constantly have to restart my tv, glitches, audio out of sync, black screen etc, stutters randomly. Incredibly annoying when I’m trying to watch something. I haven’t had a single playback issue yet with the jellyfin player. It just works

Edit: oh and how can I forget: in the plex player, sometimes “pause” just… didn’t fucking work?! Lmao. I had to exit the player and re enter. So annoying.

YES

I gotta try those

If the apps don't work for you then I'd stick to plex. But I had the opposite experience, especially with the Plex Android TV app, it is so shitty... And the Jellyfin Android TV app is rock solid

I actually had the opposite experience, better subtitle support without transcoding the video track with Jellyfin

Yes!

There’s no way currently. If you don’t like the iOS look, on the android app you can select the android theme, but that’s material v2 currently

No, there isn’t. Post language is a bit buggy/ weird and I need to think of the best way to support it.

Thanks, it should be fixed in the next release.

No worries. I'm on it 🫡

Yeah... some nerd details: Capacitor v7 enabled service workers in Android (kinda). Which is great, but I wasn't expecting that. And so the native android app is checking for PWA updates, finds an update, but the PWA menu to update is disabled in the native app.

The fix basically just disables the service worker code completely for the native app. Probably should have been done before, but again, in capacitor v6 service workers weren't a thing, so it was effectively disabled anyways then.
