Welcome to Streamyfin, a simple and user-friendly Jellyfin client built with Expo. If you're looking for an alternative to other Jellyfin clients, we hope you'll find Streamyfin to be a useful addition to your media streaming toolbox.

• 🔗 Connect to your Jellyfin instance: Easily link your Jellyfin server and access your media library.
• 📱 Native video player: Playback with the platform native video player. With support for subtitles, playback speed control, and more.
• 📥 Download media (Experimental): Save your media locally and watch it offline.
• 📡 Chromecast media (Experimental): Cast your media to any Chromecast-enabled device.

Streamyfin includes some exciting experimental features like media downloading and Chromecast support. These are still in development, and we appreciate your patience and feedback as we work to improve them.

Downloading works by using ffmpeg to convert a HLS stream into a video file on the device. This means that you can download and view any file you can stream! The file is converted by Jellyfin on the server in real time as it is downloaded. This means a bit longer download times but supports any file that your server can transcode.

• Ensure you have an active Jellyfin server.
• Make sure your device is connected to the same network as your Jellyfin server.

We welcome any help to make Streamyfin better. If you'd like to contribute, please fork the repository and submit a pull request. For major changes, it's best to open an issue first to discuss your ideas.
