I love EVERYTHING there except
Saved servers and settings will not be migrated from Jellyfin Media Player.
I can fix it, and it’s no big deal, but I provide services to friends and family who’ll need me to walk them through it.
That’s the stuff where we lose out to corporate products.
That looks specific to jf desktop, do you have many users using that?
One too many apparently :)
I’ll survive.
The tizen version is finally close to release. I don’t use a Samsung TV but in-laws do and I don’t like installing the dev version.
Is it a nativ tizen app? So far there was a webview which is ok but it’s a webview
Just upgraded from 10.10. Seems to have gone well. Library scan still going.
E: Couldn’t finish lib scan. Reverted to 10.10.
10.11 is still a hot mess for large home media collection. Especially one with images mixed in. The team doesn’t even seem to prioritize fixing all of that before moving on building new features. Music collection are also slower and albums meta don’t load correctly anymore. I would hold off from fully converting to it if you have a large collection
I do have a large collection and I haven’t checked the music lib state yet. I have a zfs snapshot from before the upgrade so I could restore if shit hits the fan.
SWIM has a sizable aged library - wouldn’t be surprising with sqlite db corruptions by now - and absolutely no issues smoothly upgrading amd migrating to 10.11. Had sweaty upgrades a few times over the years but this was not one of them.
Honestly it’s a testament to the devs that it mainly worked for most people as well as it did.
Like kudos to them. That was a huge, huge migration to a different library/format and they pulled it off.
We were using Jellyfin to watch old episodes of Sherlock Holmes last night, during a break we switched over to playing a few songs I had thrown on there. The interface for movies and shows seems great but my spouse asked me, “why is there a shuffle option for shows?” To which I said idk, maybe if someone watches something like family guy it doesn’t matter. But then when we were under my music section, I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to use shuffle. It was probably user error, but it seemed strange
Which client were you using? Android? Roku? etc.
I run the server from Mint, play from Roku client. I have a copyparty server set up on that mint sever as well, and we resorted to pulling up the website and having a 80s competition, trying to top the other but not by much so we didn’t go to what we thought would be the best song right aways, which we played from our phones so the other could scroll and look. Hers Samsung, mine Motorola, so both android.
Edit: Just checked the Android app for jellyfin. It appears we jumped from jellyfin to copyparty to early, the jellyfin app has the shuffle button.
At least we still made it fun
For me it was far too hungry on CPU at “idle”.
I got an issue that it keeps my servers hdd awake even when not in use. Hope they can fix that soon.
The ‘Experimental’ layout is now enabled by default for all non-TV devices, introducing a new navigation layout and updated UI components.
Anyone got pictures?
ahhh I’ve been waiting for a new layout, too bad i probably won’t get to use it since they won’t fix the bug/feature that keeps the pc awake and screen on with a black image after an episode finishes (when autoplay off). will be forever stuck in player 1.9.1.
Android TV / Chromecast: subtitles are broken since November for external players. Literally stopped watching my shows.
I found 2 major issues on subtitle for external played,
- displaying italic words in external player subtitle
- if there’s an .ass subtitle file, no subtitle will shown
Because of this, now I use built in player until it’s solved
This is why I don’t update unless absolutely necessary. I’m only running a local instance so it is less of a security issue. Once I land on a working version, I’m gonna go ahead and stick with that as long as I can.
I will say that the 10.11 update for me was a freaking nightmare with so different types of failures.
I’m still waiting the ability to remove seasons without deleting the media, especially since I now have ton’s of duplicate season_xxxx seasons from the major version update, mucking up most of my seasons that I didn’t have before.
Oh and chromecasting on the app is still a giant mess.
Still great to hear they’re making progress.
Really with they would take security vulnerabilities seriously 😞
Because they are significant, and broad reaching.
