Chromecast Jellyfin issues (lemmy.ml)

anyone got Chromecast with Google TV 4K working with Jellyfin? it runs Android TV, gets the Jellyfin app and then stuff starts breaking.

It can't connect to the server intermittently, playback stutters, stops, breaks... the server reports the file is direct play and no issues.

Five other devices have no problems of any kind, only this fucker has spells constantly.

Are you trying to play 4k content on a non-4k tv and making the chromecast rescale content? That will result in these issues because the chromecast is a slow POS that needs to play 4k content on a 4k tv

no 4k content, no transcoding (disabled server side), plain ol' 264/265 files, no other devices have issues. worked fine for the first day or two. it's possible there was a system update but I don't know, latest ATV app.
