I have Jellyfin installed on my DS923+ with Tailscale. However, it’s impossible to watch videos remotely due to the constant lag. I never had this problem with Plex, so I’m unsure if this is due to user error or not. All of my videos are 1080p. I’m not attempting to transcode a 4K behemoth or anything. Is there any way to increase the stream quality or reduce the lag?

Would enabling hardware acceleration make a difference? Despite my NAS having no gpu. Would using a reverse proxy improve the connection? If you have any ideas or advice I’d love to know. Thank you ❤️

    What device are you watching on, and is it happening to all videos equally or does an MKV lag more than an MP4 for example? Are there any errors showing in the jellyfin logs?
