JellyPlayer is a direct-play video player for Apple TV. It streams your own films and shows straight from your Jellyfin server or an SMB share on your network — 4K, HDR, high bitrate, with nothing re-encoded along the way.
Requires tvOS 18 or later. A Jellyfin server or an SMB share is needed.
Your server sends the original file; the app decodes it on device. No transcoding.
High-bitrate 4K up to 60 fps. HDR10 and HLG passthrough; Dolby Vision rendered as HDR10.
Browse SMB shares on your network, with automatic discovery of nearby servers.
Switch audio and subtitle tracks on the fly, including PGS (image) subtitles.
Hardware-accelerated decoding for HEVC, H.264, AV1, VC-1 and more.
Playback progress syncs back to your Jellyfin server so you pick up where you left off.
