Problem is jellyfin doesn’t have apps on stuff, therefore my family can’t reach the content on their TVs without side loading and that’s so far beyond any of them it isn’t even funny
Damn good, is an understatement. The only app I found better than the Xbox app is using Kodi Plex Plug In, but the HDR is non-existent on that, so it’s worthless to me.
This madlad made a chart comparing which files /codecs transcoded or Direct Played a few years ago. I finally found it again.

Edit: That’s an old one, there was one updated with the Series consoles, but I can’t find it. The Series Plex update (which may work on the others as well) rarely transcode anyone.
What “stuff” are you referring to? Has the webapp, Android, iOS, Firesticks, Roku. What are you trying to run it on? Even my SmartTV has it in thier native store.
I’m gonna guess plugging in a roku is too much for them, too? When Arthur C Clarke said his magic quote I didn’t expect that line to be drawn at shiny lights on a screen for most people.

What devices are missing support in your case? Not an exhaustive list of clients
To be fair, an app for Samsung TVs would be great. Currently you need a complicated work around to get it working.
This Samsung app is the one thing I need to actually switch my family over to jellyfin.
I could do the workaround for myself, but I’m not doing it for others.
So for now I’m the only jellyfin user
An Xbox app that isn’t just the web UI. Plex has a damn good Xbox app.

What does Kodi do better?

Can cast fairly well from the phone app or even the browser. Chrome cast is funky though.

Which TV models?
