      Is there some trick to get it to work properly? Everytime I tried to use it, it works fine for like 10 minutes and then everyone desyncs to hell.

      It’s still better than Plex’s which didn’t work at all though.

        Ah, strange.

        I’ve never had any issues, but I also haven’t used it in a while.

        Might be related to transcoding/sub-burning? https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/issues/6210
