From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

1: The official Android app didn’t work?
That’s strange as I run it on a Samsung and Pixel straight from the PlayStore. What were your problems?
2: This is not required as long as the profile is set up wthout a password.
3: This depends on the client and codecs supported by it. Newer phones support most, or is able to transcode. Weaker/older units are not.
They're probably talking about Samsung TVs, not their android phones/tablets. Installing jellyfin on those things can be a chore. My experience with LG was similar. The official build was out of date and riddled with issues that didn't exist on other versions. It refused to play videos that worked well enough on other devices, transcode or no.
That thought didn’t cross my mind, and you must be right.
I’d say go for a streamer of some sort as a solution. Not had many issues on the CCWGTV.
Yeah tizen based TV. So no android apps.
Speaking to #2, I'm surprised since I always use the "sign in from another device" feature, where I punch some numbers into the app on my phone and it signs me into the tv.
That said, the tv is running the desktop app.
Not seen that option, it.might be useful. However, If I move from Plex it needs to be familiar to everyone else in the house. Retraining them is tricky.
