I'm in this same boat. Right now jellyfin just isn't close enough.

I was at a buddies house last week, he uses jellyfin. We were having weird decoding issues, pink/purple flashes that looked like HDMI desync.

Resetting/reseating etc etc anything on the TV did nothing. Had to restart his server then it was magically fine 🤔

I'm fine dealing with that kind of stuff occasionally, but my family is not capable.
