The Lemmy Jellyfin Venn Diagram is just a circle.
We don't care about other topics, the only thing that gets us going in the morning is personal media libraries and software to manage and play them!
Personal media library? You mean... personal Linux distros collection?
Idk about the rest of these jabronies, but I didn't even know jellyfin had its own comm until this appeared in my feed. But I'm gonna subscribe now that I know of it!
jabronies
You keep using that word and.... it's awesome.
I wasn't actually sure I was still on Lemmy when I saw this news. But it was an instant subscribe once I found out.
Hello from "All"!
I can't tell you how many times I've looked up some feature or low-priority bug only to find the answer is "there's a PR for this that will be added in 10.9", commented like a year ago, glad to see the future plan is more frequent but smaller feature releases!
Is there a place where I can see a list of features set to release with 10.9?
I was going to ask OP to link to the thread, but it looks like he hasn't actually posted anything after that: https://mastodon.social/@hetisniels/112044929265622327
Yeah not yet.
Looks like there's several closed Pull Requests with the tag of "release highlight" which is an easy place to start
Ooh, thanks. So big things for us users seem to be transcoding improvements and audio normalisation. And a bunch of security stuff that's important for people that run this on the public internet.
Jellyscrub being integrated and anything towards skipping intro/outro’s looks like great additions too.

You can probably check the commits since 10.8
I gather not yet but you could follow Niels on Mastodon for updates.
Just donated to Jellyfin. Very happy with the work they do. Love you guys!
Same! Been using them a while, great app.
I didn't think they took donations?
Thank you, I couldn't find it before
They strictly use the donations to cover their infrastructure cost (website, docs, metadata API fees). They don't use donations to fund development, to avoid becoming for-profit at all cost.
And since they are currently sitting at ~$20k that they have yet to spend, they aren't pushing the donation options at all.
What they much rather need is actual contributors, that can help with development.

Congratulations to the Jellyfin Team!!!
Thanks for all of your hard work.
I've been dabbling with jellyfin lately. It doesn't seem to like my mp3 organization, which Plex had no issues with. I generally use artist/album/songs, though there are exceptions that seem to be tripping up jellyfin. For example, I split compilation cds into the appropriate artist's directory (so, artist/song), and it doesn't seem to know how to deal with that. There are also a few weird things floating around, but those might be due to bad id3 tags in the mp3s.
I know there are some issues with mp3 tags in some songs. For example, my wife's *NSync or N-Sync (or whatever the hell they are, I don't actually care) mp3s seem to have the artist name in different formats, so that's not helping matters at all.
Also, in fairness, jellyfin kind of got a bum start on my system - I installed it and started it, but I didn't have enough space on /var for everything, so the system started having problems. To get it running, I stopped jellyfin and just deleted the metadata directory (getting the server running in general was much more important than getting jellyfin working). I've since allocated more space to /var, and I had jellyfin reread all of the libraries, which seems to have been mostly successful. (It looks like I had the same issue with Plex, because I had moved its metadata /var directory to the media drive, but I forgot for jellyfin.)
I do hope the new version includes some features that are just personal preference, like for example I'd prefer the "artist" view to be first in the Music section, not albums. And I'd like to sort albums within the artist by year, not name (I suppose I could go in and give it the year as the sort key, but I don't want to have to do that for every artist). These are personal preferences, of course, not breaking bugs.
Overall it seems like a decent replacement for Plex. I watched an episode of the Simpsons using it last night on our FireTV, and it worked fine.
I follow what lidarr does. Worked great so far on my cases of adding custom tracks I didnt want to submit to musicbrainz.

Anyone have a good source that explains how to setup and find safe media. Computer literacy is not my strong point.
Buy Blurays and rip them to your machine. From there copy them into Jellyfin.
You will need a Bluray reader, Handbrake and MakeMKV
In this order:
- Rip the BluRay-Disk (or DVD) with MakeMKV, you will got the film with all languages and subtitles in one MKV-File;
- Shrink the MKV-File with Handbrake and save it as H264/H265 or better as AV1 (better because open-source and the future).
Do not use AV1 or at least don't use it as of now as it isn't supported my most devices. I think there is exactly one phone that supports it as of now
I know the nVidia Shield doesn't have it, and I'm not replacing that any time soon.
Eh, Chromecast has AV1 and so do some smart TVs already. If that is your primary watching platform, encode away in AV1 and get an Arc A380 for the rest. It will also massively decrease encoding times.
Untrue, all my devices support av1 at this point, so that's only your mileage.
I am happy with av1 and its awesome space savings over h264.
Over h264 sure, but h265? Hardly worth it for me.
In my experience the saving over h265 is still consistent and given that hardware h265 is less common that av1 on new devices, from h264 there is no need to go h265 but directly to av1 is better if you need to do the job.
Keep h264 otherwise.

What do you mean by "safe media"?
Where I don't have to throw my PC out afterwards due to virus and malware.
The good old Arr Stack is worth looking into.
Radarr (movies), Sonarr (TV), Prowlarr (for finding things), Bazarr (if you're in the subtitles gang, but most newer rips already contain it), VPN (to keep out nosey lawyers).
Only the VPN costs money, and it may be optional depending on where you are.
~~First~~ Second update:
That's the 2nd post. He started with the update regarding the restart command.
