I run Jellyfin in Docker on a Pi4 and it works great. The only problem are x265 files, because Jellyfin tries to transcode them and the Pi cannot handle that.
You have to change it for each user. Go to the users settings and scroll down, under Media Playback there are options to allow audio and video transcoding. I still have audio transcoding on but that doesn’t seem to cause any issues.

You can disable that, I did that too. I don’t have any issue playing h.265 or even AVI on any of my devices.
How did you disable it? I would love to just have a direct stream, but I can’t find an option for that anywhere.

I tried that, but then it won’t play any HVEC video.
