Usually a lurker.Maybe I should've just shut up and thought for a bit longer before writing that comment...

If you want to talk to me elsewhere, you know how to reach me.

  • If that is the same as oAuth, that can be done with a plugin.But yes, that's not native.

  • My phone UI is german so I translated it with google. Text should be accurate enough

    It's essentially like Spotify does it (probably)

    Should something be unclear, give me a heads up :)

  • And those that havent bitten the bullet for the license

  • Appreciated

  • From my admin panel (showing the user child protection):

    Idk where the age metadata for movies ia pulled from but I guess it's either TMDB/TVDB or some other metadata source I added.Seems to work though (I have not added it)

    The age rating can be written over and locked so a refresh can not reset it.

    As for subtitles (don't quote me though):SRT on the AndroidTV app is basically instant (just direct play)PGS can (afaik) usually also played directlyVobSub needs to be burned in/transcodedASS/SSA is in a phase to be implemented so it doesnt result in transcoding.

    But usually encoders/remuxers include SRT or PGS subs anyway.My only complaint is the native iPad-app which needs a minute to stream SRT subs for whatever reason (using the web-ui). The mobile Android app, the AndroidTV and regular web ui basically work instantly so idk /shrug

  • I would recommend Symfonium for muaic listening.It has an insane feature set (and it can support both Plex and Jellyfin libraries

    One of my killer features of it are rolling cache. And you can decide how big and how it behaves to cache songs

    I use Jellyfin to listen music at best on desktop at work through the browser

  • I struggle to understand why JF users seem to want Plex users to convert so badly. I used JF for a while but things are great on Plex.

    See no further as wenn Windows does something bad and Linux users come in like locusts.

  • As a Jellyfin user that has lurked in past "Plex did bad thing X" threads and someone suggested jellyfin.

    The usual reasons are

    • Remote login (through their relay)
    • Which also plays into remote streaming
    • Plex Amp (their music player) is supposedly the absolute best of anything
    • Very easy to sign up (both the admin and family and friends

    At least that's what I remember at the top of my hat.

  • Windows (10 and 11 at the very least) shutdowns upon pressing it

  • Could be.Or maybe some setting.

    When configuring my setup 1 or 2 years ago I had someone point out my older kernel and that I should use the linuxserver opencl mod for the jellyfin container.After that it worked like a charm.

  • Can't confirm for me.Rock stable.Only stutters on bad cellular coverage or my upload at home being insufficient for the requested bitrate.

  • Certainly.Also, fuck you /j

  • Because default settings arent always ideal...Some goes for the TV they use and whatever codec they can digest.

  • For me (Android) I have used these:

    • Finamp
    • Default Jellyfin App
    • Symfonium

    And Symfonium can do many sources and is the moat powerful.Finamp is neat but couldnt do casting to my soundbar via google cast

  • Had some issues with streams not loading in Jellyfin.I needed to set up a user-agent and streaming-profile like this:User-Agent: Lavf/61.9.107Streaming profile:-> command: ffmpeg-> parameters: -http_persistent 0 -extension_picky 0 -i {streamUrl} -c:v copy -c:a copy -fflags +genpts+discardcorrupt -b:v 4M -maxrate 4M -bufsize 8M -f mpegts pipe:1

    This is (still depending on your m3u source) to avoid most of the transcoding or double transcoding of the streams :)

    The dispatcharr page is mostly self-explanatory but had some issues with the m3u and epg.Make sure to properly align your streams with the epg guide you are pulling.Do all (M3U and EPG XMLTV) through dispatcharrProvide these to Jellyfin:M3U: http://dispatcharr:9191/output/m3u/ActiveChannelsXML EPG: http://dispatcharr:9191/output/epg/ActiveChannels?tvg_id_source=tvg_id

    (Notice: I am using docker. I also set up a group for channels so I can de-/activate channels however I please without deleting and recreating them constantly.)

  • yup

  • I am using a non-privileged user on jellyfin.Admin stuff needs to be done with a hidden user.I might should be bothering to do rootless docker at some point...

  • You all afraid like the feds are monitoring your home network between each other...

  • Everything the jellyfin mobile app can do via vpn (or without if you feel brave)
