■ Playback
Kotatsu selects playback options based on your device's capabilities. On Apple TV HD, content that needs conversion can be transcoded to H.264 by your Jellyfin server. Hardware acceleration depends on your server's hardware and configuration; playback quality and performance also depend on your network.

- Jellyfin Server 10.9 or later
- A Jellyfin server and an account with access to its media
