Unless you're very specific and consistent with your source media codecs, I highly recommend using jellyfin-mpv-shim when streaming from the browser.

You just start the headless client wherever you want to play and it comes up as a "cast target" from the icon in the top right.

Much better performance and codec support. MPV also has great subtitle control and caching.

Also, if you haven't, it may be worth updating to the latest point release. There have been a couple of bugs that have come and gone but I think it's in a good place right now.
