or use tail scale / headscale

i also would be on Tizen OS, got myself a cheap used NVidia Shield TV and use this now. debloated it etc.

Magnitudes of order better experience than fucking Tizen

I also bought Plex years ago for 87€ but i gifted that account to a friend once i got jellyfin up and running.

You’re right - Jellfyin doesn’t have a native built-in way to access it from outside. That’s the reason Plex intercepts with their own servers when you do remote streaming, that’s one of the aspects you pay for.

Using tailscale (free and setup in like 5 min) you can access jellfin from everywhere. Easy peasy.

Rumor says that Plex also denies you remote access when you use a VPN or mesh like tailscale… so ymmv

jellyfin welcomes you with open arms

Bcs i’m a server admin on dbzer0

Betterbird

Frontschweine

In americas case, these are the exact same people

i also have a spotify premium account so that can’t be the issue.

Well - happy for you that it works as you want it to. I might give it another shot, maybe i had a bad installation or a flaky version

I’ve also stumbled upon Spotizerr but i’ve had so much problems with it. Usually only getting around 75% of my playlists synced.

I now use onthespot and manually download my playlists once a week. Onthespot also saves a .m3u8 playlist file with absolute paths of the saved music. That way i can just chuck those playlists straigh into my jellyfin and be done.

onthespot needs some tweaking to get it working right. Usually wait 15 seconds between downloads and after around 100 downloaded songs it starts to fail every other song.

I just let it run through and the start the download process for the whole playlist again - it skips all already existing ones and after two or three runs i have everything updated again.

Nah sorry 🫤

1. Learning the moves of a monster you have to fight helps immensely.

Either get bodied a few times and take notice of their moves, or watch videos of fights against any given monster.

2. Adjusting your weapons and armor for the monsters resistances and vulnerabilities.

I run audiobookshelf and it’s amazing!

So glad i switched to jellyfin half a year ago

Maybe the IP address changes? You should provide some more info.

Terminal outputs etc

Yup, mine aswell

I really do love this newsletter

It’s chrism

Also i find that the speed of scanning, getting metadata, accuracy of linking metadata and files, the whole music section is lacking on jellyfin comparing to Plex

Still I prefer jellyfin as its free and open source and it does what I want it to do. But in my experience Plex did all of this way better, faster, more accurately and reliable… And jellyfin music category is outright unusable compared to plex

I am talking solely about the server side, not the player side.

Obviously a good functioning player will not need hw accellerated transcoding or hdr conversion. But sometimes that’s simply neither possible or feasable. Some hardware simply cannot properly transcode all formats, or don’t allow for installation of a player that can do that. Sometimes i watch a movie on my laptop while being connected to my phone mobile hotspot and using wireguard to phone home, i don’t want to direct stream a full movie in hdr and 1080p 40mbit/s… i want the server to transcode it properly.

So to conclude - i am talking about serverside, not playerside - stop assuming the person you are talking with doesn’t know what they do simply because you think you know better.
