**Jellyfin** is the primary video streaming service for **The Nest**[cite: 9]. Similar to commercial streaming platforms like Netflix or Hulu, Jellyfin allows you to stream movies, TV series, and documentaries on demand across all your devices[cite: 9].
* **Submit Requests:** You can request new titles through **[Seerr](../media-requests/seerr.md)**[cite: 9]!
* **Automated Sync:** Once requested, media moves through our automated ingest pipeline and automatically populates in Jellyfin[cite: 9].
* **Library Scans:** Jellyfin scans for new media regularly[cite: 9]. If a newly approved request doesn't appear immediately, please wait up to 24 hours for automated library indexing[cite: 9]. If content is still missing after 24 hours, reach out to an administrator on Matrix[cite: 9].
* **Subtitle Options & Syncing:** Subtitles can be enabled directly inside the video player[cite: 9]. If subtitle timing feels slightly out of sync, many clients (including the Web browser player) allow you to adjust the **Subtitle Offset** in the player settings to align dialogue perfectly[cite: 9].
* **Bandwidth & Quality Controls:** If you are on a limited mobile data connection, you can adjust your streaming bitrate and resolution per-device in your profile playback settings[cite: 9].
* **Offline Playback:** Jellyfin does not support native offline downloads[cite: 9]. Content must be streamed while connected to the internet[cite: 9].
