Lol the roku client for emby was annoying me, so I installed jellyfin just so I could use the jellyfin roku client. Which turns out to also be buggy and annoying. So now I’m running both and I’m tempted to install plex next.
I’m one of the programmers of the Jellyfin Roku client. Would you mind sharing what things you found to be buggy and annoying in the client? We’re always looking for feedback for things to work on and improve.
I can’t say I’ve ever seen any showstoppers for the jellyfin Roku client, but I will say it seems rather inconsistent when using the media options menu after selecting a movie. Sometimes choosing a different video reverts to the default top choice when you hit play. Sometimes the audio selections don’t match up with the chosen video but rather a different video option, meaning any choice is the wrong choice. At one point I even got the client to say that AAC Stereo was both the chosen Video and Audio. It’s really hard to describe and never enough a nuisance to wade through the process of opening an issue.
Yeah, I used to reconfigure things quite a lot while I was still a student. Now with a dayjob, I’m glad if I can just use my laptop to get actual things done. Having previously figured out a really good setup, is very helpful in getting things done, though.
Time to get a VPS my friend, and figure out what needs to be hosted at home and on the VPS, and make things sync wherever required, and perfect your VPS with the right distro
You won’t believe this, but I’ve actually finished configuring my linux
There are things I believe. This is not one of those things.
not believing intensifies
that’s the moment you’re supposed to change distro.
I already finished 10 times. And I probably will be doing 10 times again.
Except you count a windows vm with gpu-passthrough then I am still on it.
I run my emby and jellyfin server, my desktop, printer server, plus a bunch of other shit I can’t think of right now.
If any of that shit doesn’t work, I will be annoyed. So I’m certainly not tinkering with it all the time.
you need both of these things? Dont they both do exactly the same thing?

Thank you for your service, I’ve spent many hours on that app.
🤘 Enjoy

I knew about the audio option not matching if you choose a different video option. In fact, we noted that in our release post: https://jellyfin.org/posts/roku-200#-tv-episode-version-support
The others I’ve not heard of before. If it every becomes a nuisance, please open a ticket so we can investigate.
Ah, I didn’t see that because I haven’t generated types for TV Shows yet. Only movies.
Thank you for the ongoing support!
🤘
The trifecta!

I hope you’re on a long LTS release my friend
I use arch btw

Ubuntu vps ftw
Fine
But is your config standards-compliant and linted?
Does it degrade gracefully enough that you can load it on 1980s Unices and what is possible to load will load? Without emitting error messages??
I used to just crastinate but now I’m a pro.
