Is there a way to turn off incremental search? Either Web UI or apps: search seems to send a search instruction to server for every new letter added to the search box. I'ld much rather type a few letters (I usually sort of know what I'm looking for) and then click send or whatever to fetch results only for that. Would improve performance a lot for me
Rpi temp idle is ~49°C, gets to about ~65° when being queried, etc. ~75° during initial library scan
Was a osmc install (which as I understand is a minimalist debian ?), installed jellyfin, disabled mediacenter (kodi) on boot. It's all on home wifi still... Only about 1700 albums of music and audiobooks, no movies no series. Perhaps the wifi chip in rpi isn't good enough?
My guess would be that a Pi 3 is good enough for serving menus and files, but is struggling to keep up with real time search. The bandwidth needed by search is minimal so I would only suspect networking if you were over some remote, mobile connection.
Is your Jellyfin database on the PI's microSD or on the SSD? Maybe the SD isn't fast enough (although I'm also not sure whether an USB SSD performs better).
