Jellyfin 10.8 Alpha & Beta

[luguber]

I've upgraded to your new build, and now recordings are populated again as well, so with this version I have this far not found any issues. So well done and thanks a lot.
My usage of Jellyfin is as a media organizer for Kodi, so Kodi is where I watch live tv etc. for the most part. However Jellyfin is very convenient when travelling or if I visit friends/family, or at quiet times at work. So that's when/where I use the live tv part of jellyfin. (where nextpvr of course is the tv backend in both cases).

@luguber the changes where accepted (based largely on your comments) and so they should be in the 10.8 release. Thanks for helping out.

That's great, thank you for all your efforts!

I see the new version is available in the official repo already, as version 8.
I installed it and version numbering of the plugin is normal with this release. I guess that was the only remaining thing even though it didn't have any functional affects.
Thank you again!

Yes they told me that automation took care of the numbering. I probably complain too much about the Jellyfin team, they do a lot of things right too, and addons aren't their prime focus, I expect there are only a handfull of users.

Thanks for confirming it works.

Ive been running this for the past week. From a clean install on the latest jellyfin beta with the plugin from their repo. Working very well so far. No crashes, no yelling, no problems (the latest UIDroid app was causing reboots of the android tv boxes from time to time). Only thing I cant get it to pass thru is the EAC3 audio but thats not a biggie. Ive got it connected via two Android TV boxes (MiBox-s).

Thanks for the update, I didn't see any issue when the went to beta but that would be a 15 minute test. Jellyfin Live TV has really been unsupported since the MediaBrowser fork and never was as good as Emby but I am glad it is working for you.

I have had uidroid crash largely because of backend issues with libSkiaGraphics but subtitles give problems too but I don't recall crashing the box itself, a phone OS should never do that. I not have tested on the old MiBox so I will give it a try. I suspect you have too many apps installed, always a problem on Android, but remember my philosophy is without logs there is no problem.

Hi Martin. I've been trying to catchup nextpvr/jellyfin integration. live TV and guide are perfect. I'm just working out recordings playback.
My jellyfin plugin is listed as 8 - which if I understand correctly is the same as the betas mentioned in this thread? No?

Just working out recordings, I saw a note about turning on unauthenticated access - which I did and I can play back recordings. But if I read correctly that if on the same machine (which mine are) it should be able to use the filename recording scheme (and I had to make sure the unauthenticated access was on). When I look i the logs I don;t see any evidence that it's pulling via filename - or is this happening inside the m3u8 from nextpvr?

[mvallevand]

I saw your earlier post and it's nice to see you trying this again. I am not sure I would have stuck with GBPVR back in the day if it wasn't for ML2

Anyway, yes on the same machine it should work, did you change the setting in JF for the addon?
