We host no installers. Every download link goes to its original source. For this software we downloaded the files from that source ourselves, re-computed each checksum and checked the code signature where our tools could, as shown above. A passing check shows a file is the one that was published; it is not a guarantee it is free of problems. For more information, visit our Security and Trust Center.

Jellyfin Media Player FAQ
Is Jellyfin Media Player safe to download from here?
We host no installers. Every download button goes to the original source, and the checks below were run on those files.
On 2026-11-05 we downloaded the latest 3 installers from those sources and re-computed the SHA-256 of each: 3 of 3 match the package catalog’s value. Code signatures: 2 valid, 1 not signed.
VirusTotal: none of its 62 security engines flagged any of the 3 scanned files.
Our rating: Safe. No check is a guarantee. See the security details above and our Security and Trust Center. Publisher’s website: Jellyfin Media Player’s official website.
Does Jellyfin Media Player update itself after I install an old version?
For Windows, we have no information on whether Jellyfin Media Player updates itself, and for Mac, we have no confirmation that the app updates itself, although many apps check for updates and offer to install them. Look for an update setting in Jellyfin Media Player (see Jellyfin Media Player’s documentation) before you rely on an older version.
Does Jellyfin Media Player cost anything?
No. Jellyfin Media Player is free and open source (license: GPL-2.0).
Which versions of Jellyfin Media Player are listed here, and how far back?
For Windows, we list 12 versions, from 1.6.0 up to 1.12.0, and for Mac, only the current release (1.12.0) is listed, because older Mac builds are not kept in the package listing. This page shows all of the Windows versions.
Where do the download links go?
They go straight to the source named in the package catalog, with nothing added by us: for Windows, to github.com, and for Mac, to github.com. We host no files. Compare the SHA-256 shown next to each file with the one you compute after downloading. Publisher’s website: Jellyfin Media Player’s official website.
