A fork of Emby before they went closed source.
Website: http://jellyfin.org/
GitHub: https://github.com/jellyfin -
I'm actually working on it, in a package with a bunch of other stuff in the same app so it can actually be useful (Transmission to download stuff, SickChill to auto-download TV Shows, and a custom file manager). I'd love feedback if you want to check it out : https://git.cloudron.io/mehdi/river/

I've made a quick cloudron build here as a merge of River and Emby repos.

https://git.cloudron.io/eyecreate/jellyfin-app@eyecreate How well does your version work? I was thinking of modifying it to include some type of file sharing server (I am not sure if something like VPN+SMB, SFTP, or maybe even a torrent downloader?)

@murgero this is basically what my app "River" does. It packages Jellyfin together with Transmission for downloading stuff + CouchPotato & Sickchill to automate + a simple file manager

I am indeed, but you can try it before
If you have already packaged any app, it's really easy: https://git.cloudron.io/mehdi/river/ -
As Emby isn't open source anymore and you even have to pay for apps, Jellyfin would be a perfect replacement for the Emby app!

This is being worked on here - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/jellyfin-app/ (it's contributed by a cloudron user, cannot find him on this forum).

So laur is working on the app and pushing merge requests to this repo https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/jellyfin-app
@mehdi I am sure it would be very helpful if you want to contribute there as well

@nebulon It's actually already completely done in my river repository, just packaged with other stuff to be more useful
(like transmission, to download stuff directly into the app instead of adding every piece of media manually)
It would be more a matter of splitting my already existing package to keep only what's necessary for Jellyfin, not the rest.
However, I have used the isAdmin flag in my implementation, which if I understand correctly is now deprecated (for reasons I still do not understand BTW ^^). I do not really see any easy way of having a user be admin, except by not using cloudron's user system at all.

I'd quite like to see your full package in the app store!
At some point I want to try using it to set up a home media server thing too...

@jdaviescoates I would love that too
It has been awaiting review for a while
You can go ahead and try it right now !
-
It should be ready now. @nebulon is reviewing it (not sure if he has finished yet). It should be published soon
.
-
It is released as unstable for now. Enjoy !
