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.
Android TV / Chromecast: subtitles are broken since November for external players. Literally stopped watching my shows.
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 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
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.

They sometimes lose things as well.
And they harrass their users in other ways, for example by randomly renaming stuff to “AI…” or even integrating with AI.
100%
Ads, selling private data, adding AI, cutting features.
I just need JF to be in the same neighborhood as the corporate stuff for security and end-user ease of use. I can do a hell of a lot of complicated stuff on my end, but walking grandma through a change is painful.
The fact that jellyfin let’s you sort your media exactly the way you want without promoting or hiding content already puts JF miles ahead any commercial streaming services. The ease of mind is unbeatable.
I absolutely hate what Plex has become. I bought a lifetime pass a long, long time ago, and ever since that purchase, they seem to have done nothing but strip features I need and force features I don’t want.
Now if we could just sort the jf collections type in ways other than by date ;)

Sounds like Good First Issue material! (;
I’ve been looking through the source. I could totally fix it, but I worry no one would appreciate my code chops :) And I think the current work on the db changes might invalidate anything I actually try.
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.
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.
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 first library scan will take AGES because of the new db changes or something. My library is huge (~100tb of media) and it took days. Subsequent scans are much faster, like 10-12 minutes on 10th gen Xeon (roughly i5 equivalent) for a full library scan.
Wow.
Ok, I don’t have anywhere near that amount of media, but MythTV takes seconds to rescan ~2TB of videos and maybe a minute to get any missing details like fanart, etc.
Similar amount for music - but I feed it the files after I’ve run them through Picard.
I’ve not done a complete rescan of eveything for ages, but from memory it’s like an hour absolute tops. More like ~30 mins.
And that’s on an underclocked CPU (for quietness).
Very exiting. I’m looking forward to the day I can finally ditch Plex
I changed to jellyfin a couple of weeks ago, and my wife and I both prefer jellyfin, by far. It’s quicker and just looks better. We only use it for streaming local content, never used any other Plex features.
I don’t understand why they put so much effort into clients, when the server is still missing so many QoL features. I wish they would finally focus on those, or else I have no reason to move away from Plex.
I put my time and effort into the Roku client because I’m not a C# programmer.
Sir, I posted elsewhere and it appears your expertice may help my experience. Android/web allows shuffle at the top for music. Roku only offers me shuffle in shows. Is there a way I can enable it in music and/or is there somewhere I could donate something small to your time to add a shuffle button to roku’s music client?
Edit: it’s very possible maybe I have my server or client settings set up wrong.
This is what I see on Android for the client under music

Want to shuffle play your entire music library?
On the home screen, move the cursor over the music library and press PLAY on your remote. It’ll play 2000 random songs.
What to shuffle play all songs by an artist?
Go to your music library and switch to one of the Artist views. Find the artist you want and press PLAY on your remote. It’ll play their songs in random order.
What to shuffle play a single album?
Go to your music library and switch to “Albums” view. Find the album you want and press * on your remote. Choose “Shuffle Play Album”
You can also do this with any album listed on the home screen.
Or, in the upcoming 3.1.0 release, I’ve added a Shuffle Play button as part of the redesign of the album screen.
and/or is there somewhere I could donate something small to your time to add a shuffle button to roku’s music client?
If you feel so inclined, donation links are at the top of my GH profile: https://github.com/1hitsong but money isn’t why I do this.
Doing the Lord’s work. BrightScript seems to exist only as a way to torment those of lesser constitution.
Once you get into it, it’s not that bad.
I liken it to the love child of Classic ASP and JavaScript.
🤔 …ok, maybe it is that bad.
And I greatly appreciate it! My wife and I are thrilled with the latest-ish changes (my server was out of commission basically all of last year)
🤘Enjoy
