Jellyfin – Useful client settings

Fot getting a better user experience, I’m currently running jellyfin with those user settings.

Playback settings

jellyfin client - playback settings

Even if a preferred audio language is set, the media sometimes starts in another language. To prevent this, change the following setting:

  • Uncheck “Play default audio track regardless of language”

App client settings

jellyfin client - client settings

When streaming media on android, you sometimes can only hear background sound, but no voices. The following setting prevents this behavior:

  • Change video player type to “Integrated player”

Subtitle offset

jellyfin webclient - settings
jellyfin webclient - subtitle offset
jellyfin webclient - subtitle offset slider

If the subtitle is off sync, you can adjust it on the webclient via settings -> Subtitle Offset.
