Well I’m glad I read that before upgrading!

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 31 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

It's odd to throw that into a patch release. I guess we'll find out if I did it correctly.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean, it's patching a security issue caused by trusting headers it shouldn't, so I don't think they should wait for a big number release.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Why wait? Just release it as a big number release. The version number doesn't define the size or cadence of a release, it just says whether there's a breaking change.

[–] mac@lemm.ee 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (4 children)

At least in my org we use semantic versioning ( Major.Minor.patch) where patch must either be a new feature, a fix, or something that is backwards compatible

Minor can be breaking

Major is basically something you're proud of lol

Thanks for pointing this out! I probably would have missed this, since I didn't expect such a change for a patch release.

Their documentation mentions:

For jellyfin to know which reverse proxy is trusted, the IP, Hostname or Subnet has to be set in the Known Proxies (under Admin Dashboard -> Networking) setting.

Does this really mean, that the only way to configure this is through the web UI? This is kind of a problem when deploying it, since without the reverse proxy I can't reach the Jellyfin server. Is there no way of doing this outside the web UI, via a config file or something?

Edit: Apparently the configuration for the proxies is stored in Jellyfin's network.xml config file. So it should be possible to do this without manually configuring it via the web UI.

Another edit: It works. Adding <KnownProxies>[proxy ip or hostname]</KnownProxies> in place of the empty <KnownProxies/> key to that config file does the trick.

[–] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah the lack of info in the docs on how to configure jellyfin in the CLI is pathetic

[–] Lem453@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

If I run traefik and jellyfin in docker, do I add the docker IP of traefik as the trusted proxy?

[–] klopstock@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

I think you can use the container name if both containers are in the same docker network

Do you not normally read patch notes before patching?

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Fuck no, ain't nobody got time for that! My self hosted stack has 40+ services. I lock them to minor releases (where semvers are used), deploy blind with automation, and fire alerts when breakages occur, which is thankfully rarely.

What you're suggesting works for small, very carefully curated environments. I grew past that years ago and doubly so when I had kids.

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

40? Kinda curious what you are running now.

Could you please explain your use case for Music Assistant if you already have Jellyfin/Plex and Navidrome?

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Certainly!

Jellyfin I use for video content. I find its music functions lackluster.

Navidrome I use (and my family uses) for personal listening.

Music around the house, like on one or more of my casting capable speakers / tvs I use Music Assistant. Also let's me do automations easily, and doesn't tie up an android phones media's output. Struggled with earbuds while casting taking over audio for too long before deploying Music Assistant!

[–] Getting6409@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If you're looking for more tinkering on the music around the house front, Lyrion music server + squeezelite players can be a very fun endeavor. I think it gets a little sketchy if you're favoring automation and casting, but as a network of players that will utilize a wide swath of hardware, it shines. I had a bunch of pi4s laying around and eventually repurposed them all into a multiroom audio gang.

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah Music Assistant uses Snapcast, which has been fun. I did try squeeze, but haven't had a reason to switch so far

[–] gccalvin@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Thanks! I thought most people don't use navidrome if they have multiple users because they can't create user-specific playlists. Is this not the case? What music features do you find limiting on Jellyfin? Also, how did you get your family to switch off music streaming for your navidrome server?

What's your hardware solution for that? I've reached the limit of my configuration and may need to look into more robust hardware (or moving things like jellyfin off to a dedicated machine)

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

It's old but fairly beefy. Most of the RAM is reserved for ZFS reads, but in reality theres tons of headroom.

CPU: 2x E5-2630L v2

Motherboard: Intel S2600CP

RAM: 16x8GB DDR3 1333 ECC

Disk:

1x 500GB SSD OS
1x 500GB SSD ZFS cache (L2ARC)
45TB ZFS Mirror+Stripe pool (various sizes, 8 disks)

I'll probably be moving this to a cluster of mini computers whenever prices look right, just for power efficiency.

Minus the storage the box cost me about $600, mostly in RAM. The CPUs were like $20 each, the mobo was about $150, etc

Not related to the server, but I was very happily surprised with the latest Roku Jellyfin channel. A complete refresh of everything and it's great to see it.

[–] gazby@lemmy.dbzer0.com 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You'll want to get off Roku soon, they're already testing preroll ads for the home screen.

[–] node815@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I can see them doing that, I use a DNS ad-block (Adguardhome) with plenty of filters and last night, I spotted that they were able to inject two ads (standard one to the right of the channels and one at the bottom below the menu for the new Minecraft movie when they changed my background. So, they are finding ways around this stuff. I simply disabled the Sponsored themes. We are on the fence about replacing the TV later this year but not 100% sure just yet. It's been quite buggy randomly rebooting when switching sources and other things.

[–] gazby@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

FWIW AndroidTV is getting worse all the time also 😭 The only assurance we have is that the TV isn't connected and AndroidTV is in a separate box.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In what way is it getting worse? I was hoping to move and use some patched apps and foss apps, is that being restricted?

You dropped this. 😀

Back on topic, anyone have a rec for an alternative? I basically just need Netflix and Jellyfin, and hopefully I won't need Netflix soon (my SO keeps finding NF originals they must watch). I to use a regular remote, but AFAIK nothing provides a nice UX for Netflix w/ remote outside the official app.

I absolutely prefer something FOSS.

[–] AtariDump@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Minus Netflix? Kodi.

With Netflix? You’re not finding anything 100% FOSS.

Why aren't you just using Kodi?

[–] timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

For real. JF roku team is killing it. Latest release is so nice.

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 weeks ago

🤘 Thanks

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 weeks ago

🤘 Enjoy

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

My friend who’s been praising Plex for years and making fun of me for using Jellyfin instead just told me the other day he’s thinking about switching. It’s their new subscription fee that finally did it. xD

[–] kcweller@feddit.nl 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's what made me switch this weekend. I didn't know I missed the "Episode ends on (time)" functionality until I got it with Jellyfin, Holy shit that's so nice ❤️

updated on mint this weekend; admittedly it's not a big library (mostly just for me and my family) but it was pretty painless. i put in my trusted proxies ahead of time and backed up /etc/jellyfin and /var/lib/jellyfin ahead of time. no problems at all.

[–] Supernova1051@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

So I upgraded and tested not adding a trusted proxy (using Traefik in front of Jellyfin) and nothing broke. Was it supposed to break or is it just that its insecure? Am I less secure by not adding it as a trusted proxy?
