Jellyfin audio is always out of sync
About a month ago I set up the arr apps to download media. I was using Plex but have recently decided to try out Jellyfin. With Plex, I could easily adjust my audio offset for anything that wasn't in sync. In Jellyfin I am not seeing this option and everything I have downloaded is out of sync by about 50-100ms.
I have searched online for suggestions but nothing has helped so far. I saw a few posts about using H264 codec only so I have only downloaded H264 things and it's still out of sync. I am using the Jellyfin app on iPhone and Swiftfin on Apple TV, both are out of sync. Any suggestions?

Have you tried playing the files locally with VLC or MPV? Is the audio out of sync in the files themselves or is it because of Jellyfin?
Sometimes the audio on my client is out of sync, but after stopping and resuming the video, the audio syncs again.
If the audio is out of sync in your files you can use ffmpeg to fix them.

Joke aside, I'd rather use a tool like MKVToolNix.

I use Infuse to connect to Jellyfin for this reason.
I will give infuse a go and see how it is
