There is some discussion regarding JMP (Jellyfin Media Player) and its lack of development the past year. Jellyfin Official appears open to replacing JMP with an alternative, meaning pushing users to a different application.

What desktop clients are people using currently? Are there any in the works that you believe could replace JMP?

If you are developing one, please reply and advertise it here!

Jellyfin to MPV Shim.

This is the way. Web client to MPV Shim for local playback.

This. mpv with uosc (UI) is great and scrubbing feels much smoother than in browser.

Yeeeee. I think this is because browser playback requires transcoding, where as MPV is like VLC, in that it can play all the file types and codecs.
