Linux box with Jellyfin

[Fluffybob]

Hi all,

I am currently running Serviio on a Win10 PC so need an alternative, while still using the same hardware. I've had a play with Linux Mint and read that Jellyfin can do the job. Just wondering if it's the best distro to use and if it works over DLNA for ease of use on my Samsung TV.

TIA

Any distro will work fine for the most part - I'd query if you want to run a full desktop environment on a Jellyfin PC, otherwises I'd go with something like Debian minimal.
