WDYM by "these"? I'm specifically talking about uncompressed (raw) video.
If configured, jellyfin will transcode videos for compatibility with the playback device.
A 90min raw 4K movie is well over 4TB in size and does not stream fine over 500Mb/s. Your 80GB "RAW" 4K movie is compressed lossily.
Where do I get these raw 4k movies?
Infiltrate a movie studio I guess?
On a more serious note: There are some theoretical use-cases for this in a home lab setting if you "enhance" your video in some way server-side and want to send it to a client without loss.
What I had actually intended with the original question is to figure out what OP was actually doing.
What he means with uncompressed is remux, but maybe it's only me who understands that. Because raw 4k movies is not a thing for most people.
