Any time you pause it or rewind it or sneeze it throws the "EXO failed to play this video" error.

That's WHEN it decides to play sound.

I noticed they said they aren't worried about fixing it on github??

What is going on here?

I'm using a shield tv pro and it acts like this on my gaming PC too always freezing and making me force shut it down.

Did something happen with stremio lately?

Edit: anyone know of any viable alternatives that don't require learning hours of self hosting stuff like Jellyfin?

So I can have that hooked up to the open net through my NAS at home with zero security issues of accessing it through other devices?

Does this not leave my internet exposed in a dangerous way?

Or, do I have to learn about firewalls and limited access and the ability to inspect the traffic going through? And how to set up tailscale and only have one port open, etc. Etc.

Sure it doesn't require learning anything if I want to get pwned

Get a free netbird acct. it’s also real easy to setup. Just connect your client and server devices and then point your Jellyfin client to your server’s netbird (vpn) ip.

I bought a little box computer (and some drives), followed a guide for linux and docker. It has a VPN setup on there too...that's all i have. Not sure if your nas is drive or drive and computing, but NAS is the expensive part covered. I dont think i have any security....im thinking now i should.
