Hi there!
Wondering what types of setup people have that allow them to, while the internet is down, still watch/stream media from their servers. I have a stacked Jellyfin library that, and would like to see this feature/setup in my own house. My Unraid server is on the other side of the house from where the living room is. Is there actually a sane way to achieve this?
Plex allows this as long as you set whatever devices local IP on the allow without authorization list. I also know that plex just gets shit on the fediverse. Jellyfin doesn’t have local allowance baked in? I’ve never used it.

Nope and that is also not needed, since it’s not a cloud dependent service.
What? I’m confused by the question the OP asked if it’s just automatically that way.
It probably does tbh, I’ll have to check the documentation to double-check though. Anything that isn’t foss tends to get a handful indeed; Jellyfin genuinely is a better experience than Plex imo.
I know for me I had to give Plex the local IPs to force local streaming because it would try to stream remote even on local network.
