Don't give your TV the wifi password.

But then how is your tv supposed to find the jellyfin server? Better to block your TV's mac address from accessing the internet.

Plug in any tiny computer with HDMI out.

The TV is a display. You want anything generating images separate, in case you find it disagreeable, and want to obliterate it with a ball peen hammer.

An Apple TV, a Roku, an old PC, a fucking pi, anything can speak to jellyfin just fine.
