Do not use AV1 or at least don't use it as of now as it isn't supported my most devices. I think there is exactly one phone that supports it as of now

    I’m switching to AV1. But I’ve also been following its progress for years and understand the benefits and drawbacks. I wouldn’t recommend blindly jumping in if you’re new.

    Untrue, all my devices support av1 at this point, so that's only your mileage.

    I am happy with av1 and its awesome space savings over h264.

    av1 is going to be super niche and never fully adopted, just like ogg was for audio. h264/265 will be the main thing going for years and is just fine.

    Are you aware that all android devices with A14 have av1 support as a requirement?

    Also Apple is adding that, and amazon sticks already support av1 natively.

    Said that, indeed h264 is and will be the safest and most supported choice for a very long time.

    As 265 goes, not so sure.

    A lot of newer Android-TV-Settop-Boxes are ready for AV1, for example products from Orbsmart.de like my Orbsmart S87L.
    On that box is Kodi preinstalled and you can install everything from android-stores, also the Jellybin-client.

    Don't forget: Jellybin is a very good open-source-software, but a client-server-system. So you need Hardware for the server-software.

    My point is that H264 is well supported everywhere so I personally am in no hurry to switch. Non of my devices support AV1 so it is a waste of my time for the most part.

    What's worse is when I first started a bunch of people recommended AV1 which lead to Jellyfin not working.

    And you're the norm, not the exception. Too many people choose to evangelize instead of looking at real-world use cases for the majority. I used to use Nvidia boxes around the house with Kodi. It worked but my wife and kids sure thought it was a pain in the rear often enough that it made it a pain for me too.
