Downloads for Offline Viewing (jellyfin has this for free) and Remote Access (stream videos while outside of your home network, you can just use tailwind with jellyfin for free)
You can download media for when you’re not able to reach your server. I use it to be able to watch things on my iPad at work. My iPad automatically downloads the next few unwatched episodes for whatever I have queued. And whenever it reconnects to my server, (like when I connect to WiFi) it automatically syncs to update the downloaded episodes. That way I don’t need to connect to my employer’s WiFi.
