Jellyfin Desktop is a free, open-source media player that provides native desktop access to personal Jellyfin media servers. It allows users to browse and stream movies, television shows, music, and other media from their libraries. Built with Qt WebEngine and libmpv, it combines the Jellyfin interface with advanced local playback capabilities. Hardware-accelerated decoding helps improve performance and reduce processor usage. Audio passthrough supports compatible home theater systems and surround sound equipment. Its broad codec support allows many media formats to play directly without server-side transcoding. The application stores settings, cache files, and logs in individual user profiles. Jellyfin Desktop is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
