Jellyfin Media Player - Linux - Performance

Question

Hey all,

i use the Jellyfin Media Player on my Arch System.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jellyfin-media-player

Performance wise, it is working OK after it is started, but if i let the app open in the background and for example 1 hour later, go back in to it to start an movie.

The performance of the app is extremely laggy and 99% of the time i have to restart or kill the app.

Is this only my system or someone else experience this?
