SSO plugin has been archived. Any alternatives yet?

"This repository was archived by the owner on May 12, 2026. It is now read-only."

"Project archived because I'm tired of working on this after all the years."

My setup only uses SSO, there are no regular credentials and it's been working fine so far. Once Jellyfin updates the plugin may break, I don't know what I'll do. Is there any way to move forward from this?

I've developed a CLI that diagnoses, audits, repairs and optimizes media, ensuring Direct Play

Hello friends! This is my first time posting here.

I've developed a CLI that diagnoses, audits, and optimizes media, ensuring Direct Play whenever possible. The main function of JellyCC is to check compatibility with Direct Play codecs and suggest an FFmpeg command to convert them.

The idea for this project came when I tried to use Tdarr to standardize media (codecs, removal of covers and subtitles), but I found the configuration "not so easy" for something that should be simple. So I went ahead and built something "streamlined".

Along the way, I realized I needed more control, which led me to add several other features until the project reached its current version.

Features:

  • Compatibility Analysis — Compatibility matrix for Direct Play per Jellyfin client.
  • Cleanup (Remux) — Re-wraps to MKV without re-encoding, preserving the original quality.
  • Conversion (Transcode) — Converts to Direct Play codecs (H.264 8-bit / AAC, EAC3, or FLAC) with configurable fallback rules.
  • Forced Repair — Fixes files with corrupted timestamps via an intermediate pipeline (.w64/.mp4/.srt).
  • Quick Scan + Deep Scan — Checks container integrity and analyzes frame by frame looking for artifacts and errors.
  • Myopic Scan — Deep Scan restricted to selected tracks.
  • Track Selection — Choose which video, audio, and subtitle streams to keep in the final file.
  • Sync Adjustment / End Cut — Defines time offset and end cut to avoid lip-sync issues.
  • File Merging — Merges tracks from two files into a single MKV, with automatic/manual sync.
  • Tag Editing — Edits language (e.g., por, eng, jpn) and title for each track.
  • Internationalization — Interface in English (en-US) and Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR).
  • Embedded Junk Detection — Detects and removes covers/thumbnails and PGS subtitles that force transcoding.

I hope this tool is as useful to you as it has been for me. I’d love to hear your feedback or answer any questions!

Honest question- Jellyfin or Emby?

I’m looking for alternatives to the Plex Media Server.

I’m good for playback/browsing clients, but I’m interested in seeing what else is out there for serving media files over the network with some kind of sensical external access.

The open nature of Jellyfin looks like a lot of fun! Emby is closed, but so is PMS. I’d imagine the folks here have some unique insights into why Jellyfin is better, and I’d love to hear them!

I made a free OSS tool that generates custom AI pre-rolls for Jellyfin

Hey all, I built a tool to generate custom Netflix-style "tadum" intro videos for your media server. It's called StreamRoll: https://streamroll.vercel.app

Type your server name, pick a style, hit generate. About 30 seconds later you get a 1080p .mp4 you can drop into your Intros folder. A few things:

  • 40+ style presets (Prestige, Cinematic, Retro, Futuristic, Minimal, Horror, Anime, Epic, Nature)
  • You can upload your own logo instead of generating one
  • 6 video models to choose from, including Veo 3.1 which has audio
  • Jellyfin install instructions built right into the app (also covers Plex and Emby)

Free and open source (MIT). You bring your own Runway API key, free tier covers several generations, and after that, it's about $0.30 per video. Key stays in your browser, nothing hits my server.

Would love feedback, and if anyone makes a cool one, please share!

Plezy adds Jellyfin support

It seems Plezy, a quite polished Plex client a number of people had been using instead of the official Plex apps (which are a bit of a mess now) has added Jellyfin support and a version for the AppleTV.

Added

  • Jellyfin support
  • Live TV DVR and recordings
  • iOS external display playback
  • tvOS support

Fixed

  • ExoPlayer ASS subtitle delay
  • iOS PiP subtitle issues
  • Plex startup, home hub retries, and endpoint failover
  • Sync rule removal/navigation
  • Various focus issues

Improved

  • Playback and player UI performance
  • Discord Rich Presence posters
  • iOS energy usage

https://github.com/edde746/plezy/releases/tag/2.0.0

At first glance testing out the desktop version while waiting for the Play Store and iOS App Store to be updated it seems to carry over very well into Jellyfin. It's also very easy now to switch between users without needing to log in over and over again.

It's also very handy to switch between Jellyfin and Plex or indeed display media from both types of media servers on a unified homescreen, making mixed setups that much easier.

ARVIO - An opensource mediahub for Android. Now also supports Jellyfin connection

Hi everyone,

I am the developer of ARVIO. ARVIO is an open-source media hub for Android TV, Android phones, and tablets. It is built around a TV-first interface with remote navigation, but it also supports mobile and tablet layouts. The app does not host or provide media content. Users connect their own libraries, playlists, accounts, servers, and sources.

One of the bigger recent additions is home-server support. You can connect a user-owned Jellyfin server (or Emby/Plex) and ARVIO can show matching Jellyfin items as playable sources on movie and series details pages. The goal is to make Jellyfin libraries fit into the same browsing, search, continue-watching, and source-selection flow as the rest of the app.

Recent Jellyfin/home-server related additions:

  • Connect user-owned Jellyfin servers from settings
  • Show Jellyfin media as sources on matching movie and series details pages
  • Support multiple connected home servers with custom labels
  • Import home-server collections as ARVIO catalogs
  • Improved source labels so it is clearer which server a source comes from
  • Improved matching speed and autoplay behavior for home-server sources
  • Better handling for movies, series, and episode matching

Other recent ARVIO improvements:

  • Android TV, mobile, and tablet support
  • Live tv playlist support with improved categories, EPG loading, VOD handling, and TV navigation
  • Third-party addon support, including debrid and HTTP sources
  • Profiles with optional cloud sync for settings, catalogs, watch state, IPTV state, and avatars
  • Trakt watchlist and continue-watching improvements
  • Better Android TV focus handling and smoother navigation
  • Subtitle improvements, including language filtering, defaults, offset/style settings, and AI subtitles
  • Search and catalog discovery improvements

ARVIO is still in a beginning phase you might encounter bugs, reports and requests are appreciated.

Video Filter Plugin?

Is there a plugin that adds a video filter, similar to the one seen in the official VLC IOS app?

Added photo for an example.

Stop installing AceStream on your devices. I’ve moved the engine to the server and integrated it into Jellyfin.

Hey everyone,
I was tired of the "old way" of watching sports—having to install the clunky AceStream engine on every single device (phone, tablet, PC) just to watch a race or a match. It’s resource-heavy and a pain to manage.
I finally found a way to decouple the engine: my server (running Proxmox/LXC) now handles the headless AceStream motor and feeds the stream directly into Jellyfin’s Live TV.
Why this is a game-changer:
Centralized Processing: The server does the heavy lifting (P2P, buffering, and transcoding).
The "Premium" Feel: I get all the paid sports channels (F1, Football, etc.) for free, but inside a clean, high-end UI.
True Mobility: I just open the Jellyfin app on my phone anywhere, hit play, and it works. No extra apps or configurations needed on the client side.
It’s basically my own private, self-hosted sports platform. I’ve documented the full technical stack and the "missing link" to connect the dots here:

JellyEmu has officially reached version 0.5, a milestone that felt far away not long ago, and one that wouldn't have been possible without the incredible support of the community. From bug reports and feature requests to testing and feedback, every contribution has shaped what JellyEmu has become, and this release is as much yours as it is ours.

Version 0.5 brings a significant amount of work under the hood and on the surface. Metadata handling has been completely overhauled, delivering richer and more accurate game information across your library. The emulator UI has been rebuilt from the ground up with a modern, clean interface that stays out of your way while you play. Emulation support has been expanded, and for consoles that fall outside supported emulation, you can now manage and organize those ROMs within your library all the same. Save state management has been made far more comprehensive, giving you real control over your progress. And for those running Romm alongside Jellyfin, first-class Romm integration means your collections stay in sync the way they should.

If you run into any issues, have a feature you'd like to see, or just want to follow along with development, head over to the GitHub at github.com/Jellyfin-PG/JellyEmu. The tracker is open and every piece of feedback genuinely helps.

Here is the repo link. Check it out and give me your thoughts about it.

To start off I am considering ditching plex for jellyfin. The journey to find the perfect jellyfin client for ios and android tv os wasn’t pleasant. Tried a bunch of apps, some crashed, some had playback issues while others had horrible ui.

During my search I stumbled upon Kodi for and android and infuse for ios. Infuse is perfect for my usage on ios. After my first time installing Kodi I uninstalled it immediately because of the horrible default skin. I later found out that there are absolutely gorgeous premium level theming that would transform everything into something even better looking than infuse or moonfin. Perfect playback after a day of setting everything up. Nothing to complain about.

I used Kodi for a single day, haven’t tried it yet with home theater surround systems or anything fancy yet. My question is why isn’t Kodi even being discussed as one of the options when jellyfin clients are brought up? What am I missing here?

I’m new to the home server thing and recently bought a system to run as a media server, I have about 2tb to start with but will definitely add more storage as time goes on. I’m running Linux mint currently and want to know what’s the best stack to run for a proper media server (VPN, torrenting software and anything else to securely manage/download my media). Any advice?

Safest way to expose JF while maintaining comparability with stock TV clients?

So I'm wanting to open up my Jellyfin, but I don't want to do the Tailscale shuffle. At the moment in setting up my domain. I was thinking of using Traefik but I don't think I can use it for internal certs too, so I might look at Caddy or NginiX.

Requesting directly form jellyfin

Hello, isn't it possible to start download requests directly from Jellyfin without going through Seer? I'm looking for a plugin that can do the same thing directly from Jellyfin without using another solution.

Major issues with Moonfin ATV client

I guess the play store recently updated my moonfin app to 1.9.1 on my Chromecast with Google TV. somehow I can't play anything the client has lost the shuffle button for tv shows. So I tried to connect on discord that won't let me authenticate. I read the rules and selected a role and it won't open the channels. Any help with either would be greatly appreciated. When I do play something it just infinitly loads. Performance is so laggy/stutterg it kinda of makes me sick. Is there anything I can do besides downgrade back to 1.8.1? Is the shuffle button permanently removed for shuffle tv shows? Is discord community currently down. It's kinda of upsetting. I know it's open source and Ive used this app since day 1. Loved it and every update seemed smooth and added great features. But it's unusable rn. Added some screenshots

Best Jellyfin Plugins + DVD Ripping Setup in 2026?

Been working on my Jellyfin setup for a while now and I’m trying to turn it into the ultimate media server lol.

What are your MUST HAVE Jellyfin plugins in 2026?

I already use some metadata stuff and intro skipping, but I know there’s hidden/custom plugins out there that people don’t talk about enough.

Also — what’s currently the BEST DVD/Blu-ray ripper?

Looking for something that:

* keeps good quality

* works with TV shows + movies

* easy to organize for Jellyfin

* preferably supports subtitles/audio tracks automatically

I’ve heard people mention MakeMKV, HandBrake, DVDFab, etc. but I wanna know what actually works best for you guys.

Bonus points if you have automation tips for ripping + naming files for Jellyfin 👀

Running Jellyfin in Unraid.

A long time I've felt that the UI have been sluggish. Think I've asked around but never really got any advice that did it for me.

Today I tried asking Google Gemini and the first thing it adviced me was changing the data location from

/mnt/user/appdata/jellyfin

to

/mnt/cache/appdata/jellyfin (or where ever your appdata is)

Doing this it bypasses the fuse layer and just goes straight to the data instead of asking unraid where the data is.

Just wanted to let others try what I wish someone told me years ago.
