Is the nvidia shield TV still the go-to box for streaming content to your TV?

I don’t really need much, just something that can pick up jellyfin. hulu/HBO/etc. is a bonus

    I use infuse for local streaming to the ApleTV from my Jellyfin server. It works well but you have to subscribe to get the good features

      That’s annoying. Part of the reason for local media is reducing the amount of monthly bills

        You can buy a lifetime license for Infuse. Alternatively the Jellyfin app is available too (as Swiftfin on the Apple TV App Store, but displays as Jellyfin on the Home Screen).

          Not sure how but I’ve missed Swiftfin and was using Infuse on my Apple TV for past few months. Made a quick test and it seems that Swiftfin suffers from the same issue as Plex does - crappy connection makes crappy experience. Don’t know how Infuse makes it but with the same network settings movies looks way better.

            Can’t say I’ve noticed video differences, but Infuse has had the fewest audio sync issues for me. However the Plex layout simply fits my brain better. Especially the ability to reorder media and use collections, and integrate my OTA antenna.

            Is it still true that only the Shield Pro does Atmos for my own media?
