Hi everyone!

I developed an Android app called JellyWatch to help you manage your Jellyfin server directly from your phone.

With JellyWatch, you can monitor active sessions, manage libraries, and perform basic admin commands wherever you are.

I’m open to feedback and suggestions to improve the experience.

If you’re interested, here’s the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jellywatch.app

Thanks for your support!

Just about finished setting up a second-hand Dell micro-PC as a home media server / file share. I now know considerably more about NFS, Avahi, DNS-SD, SSDP, UPnP, DLNA, NetBIOS, WSD, and SMB than I frankly want to Everything *should* be visible, auto-discoverable, and usable across Linux, Windows, and the Sony (Android) TV, now… And VLC on my phone, in theory. #linux #homeserver #mediaserver #nfs

Tired of streaming service fees?

Jellyfin offers a FREE, open-source way to stream your media anywhere! Host your movies, shows, & music yourself. No ads, no tracking, just your content.

Would you ditch subscriptions for this? Let us know!

It's really cool learning how JellyFin works so I can access my Movies & TV Shows from my local network. Will have to work out how to access it from else where in the future as not sure I have the knowledge to do that yet.

A few weeks in with the new 10TB WD Red Plus drive in my Jellyfin machine — and what a difference!

Moved off a slow (dying) external USB, and now streaming is smooth, even at high bitrates. Skipping through 4K content is instant, and library scans don’t lag anymore.

Sometimes all it takes is one well-picked drive. Happy with the upgrade so far

My ISP is probably sending the Men in Black after seeing today's stats

Rebuilding the media library = 1.39TB downloaded in ~35 hours. My pfSense dashboard looks like I'm running a small datacenter (which... technically... )

RIP bandwidth cap myths, at least for now...

Migrating from a dying 4.5TB external drive to a fresh WD Red Plus 10TB. The old drive was crawling at 322 KB/s with I/O errors, so I made the tough call to abandon the 162-day rescue mission.

Cleaned up the case, installed the new drive, and rescued music from a working drive.

Rebuilding my entire library from scratch - downloaded 70 out of 700 movies. Sometimes hw failure forces the upgrade you needed anyway.

This past week I used #SoundConverter to convert all my music from #Flac to #ogg because I realized I'm not an #audiophile haha. I just enjoy music and content listening to AM #radio so might as well free up tons of disk space. Plus I converted all my #MP3 files to ogg because #OpenSource better streaming on my #MediaServer

I finally got #Jellyfin #HomeMediaServer installed on my #Kubuntu 24.04 desktop... Looking to replace #Plex as our #MediaServer with it. Love the #mobile #apps for jellyfin from #Fdroid do far. The #TV interface isn't as slick as Plex but minor detail. But, cool thing with Jellyfin is that you can add your ebooks as a source, I am interested in how that will be. A good way to #AvoidAmerican is #FLOSS.

#Introduction time? I guess I've been here long enough.

Hey there, you've probably gleaned that my name is Chris. I live in #Canada where I'm trying to master the sport of #Curling, but when I'm not on the ice I'm probably rewatching some episode of #StarTrek.

I'm #Asexual, cis male, and very single. In the last year or so I started playing around with #Linux and run my own #HomeLab and #MediaServer.

I'm a huge believer in the #StrongTowns movement. Also I'm 90% sure I have undiagnosed #ADHD.
