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 1 day 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 ❤️

[–] raptore39@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

I wish everything had that

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] melfie@lemmings.world 10 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Really looking forward to 10.11 when the EFCore functionality is in place so I can run it with PostgreSQL and actually backup the DB properly and also have proper replication for a hot standby.

[–] retmas@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As far as I can understand, even with EFCore in 10.11, there still will only sqlite be available as a database backend. There are plans for postgresql and other types but it's a much more distant prospect. Reference

[–] melfie@lemmings.world 2 points 1 day ago

Ah, seems I had a misunderstanding and appreciate the info!

[–] wabasso@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If you have the time, I’d love to learn how to set up a hot standby, not just for jellyfin but in general.

[–] melfie@lemmings.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was imagining setting up an old laptop as a backup to my main server with PostgreSQL replication for the Jellyfin DB and some sort of file synchronization for media and metadata. I have yet to manually setup PostgreSQL replication outside of a cloud provider where the process is automated, so I was planning it as an interesting learning experience. However, from the post above, it seems I was misinformed about the timeframe of PostgreSQL support in Jellyfin.

[–] wabasso@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

Thanks! I’m running jellyfin inside of docker, so perhaps there’s a way to keep the images synchronized. Media sync would happen separate, as you suggest.

[–] chaospatterns@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh that would be nice. I would use that to just go into the database and fix all my broken music metadata which I can't see to fix any other way.

[–] melfie@lemmings.world 1 points 1 day ago

I stand corrected about PostgreSQL support dropping in 10.11. Seems we may still have quite a wait ahead of us.

Well I’m glad I read that before upgrading!

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 30 points 2 days 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 10 points 2 days 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 15 points 2 days 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 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 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

[–] Rogue@feddit.uk 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's not semantic versioning...

[–] mac@lemm.ee 1 points 17 hours ago

Guess my org fucked it up ¯\(ツ)/¯

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.

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 2 days 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 2 days 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.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

)

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 2 days ago (3 children)

Minus Netflix? Kodi.

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

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.
