I can’t really think of a better example of open source software than Jellyfin. The product, the team, the culture… always evolving and improving. I’m here for it!
- Not to mention its birth. It's the best example I can think of for how open source is supposed to work: it started as Emby, the Emby devs tried to close it off for profit, and the community fork became Jellyfin, which I'd argue has more than outgrown Emby.
  You barely even hear about it anymore, it's only ever Plex or Jellyfin.

I use Jellyfin heavily, and it's a fantastic project, but I really wish they would address the issues with transcoding, specifically the ability to force it on.
My library contains a decent amount of HDR (lots of DV) content. On my TVs (using Nvidia Shield), it will direct play the DV content, resulting in a green picture. If I turn on burned-in subtitles or drop the bitrate and FORCE it to transcode, it's looks perfect. I've resorted to just setting a low bitrate on clients so it always transcodes.
I'm really hoping a future version gives us the ability to set more fine-grained transcoding settings per-client. Even the ability to disable direct-play completely would be fantastic.
