I want to use my raspberry pi as a “streaming stick” connected to my tv to stream my Jellyfin library and self hosted invidious instance (not hosted on the pi). Any top recommendations on the right setup? I was considering LibreElec, but was wondering if there are any other more modern solutions.
Not sure if relevant, but RPi4 dropped HW decode for MPEG2 and VC1, I believe. Not a problem if things are in the right format (HEVC, H264), but something to possibly keep in mind.
CEC is working well so that’s all handled! And my Jellyfin server takes care of any transcoding but most of my files are just able to be played directly.
Also new to this, would having GPU decode on the server allegivate the decode issue?
Not sure about Jellyfin, but Plex would transcode to a format supported by the client yes.
