I discovered wholphin several months ago and so far it’s been fantastic for an Android tv client. The intent of the design is to be similar in UI to Plex and it achieves that very well even in it’s early development.
I’d easily say it’s the most polished client I’ve seen to date from a UI perspective even though I know there are some bugs people see (although they seem minor). For most people switching others from Plex to Jellyfin, the app is a great option.
I’ve been using it for a little while now - I prefer the UI of the official app, but Wholphin is the only way I can consistently and properly play everything in my library with 0 transcoding.
I have a ShieldTV+AVR setup that can handle every media format out there, but for some reason the default app always transcoded Atmos & DTS audio (or just refuses to play if I disable transcoding entirely).
Wholphin does not have this issue, and now everything plays flawlessly with 0 overhead.
Holy crap, this looks amazing. Has anyone tried it?
