That’s awesome! Will try it out later today.

I can see references to libhandy in there, so that definitely sounds likely!

Let us know how it works!

I don’t find this in the software store. How do I install?

It looks like it’s on Flathub. You would need to add Flathub (step #2 here) and then you can install it from there.

I’ve played with it a bit, and it does work. I found it a bit laggy. Finally got me to try out jellyfin. Works great on the librem 5.

It is programmed in python. It will be slow.

What is jellyfin?

https://jellyfin.org/ - Media server/client similar to plex. The client I’m using for Librem 5 is https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.iwalton3.jellyfin-media-player
It’s essentially the exact same as the Android app I’ve also been testing. Only difference is the linux clients can’t chrome cast :frowning:
