Crash on degoogled phones (dev is already aware)

gazoinksboe ,

The app works well enough but was unable to watch anything I downloaded offline on iOS. Has anyone experienced this and found a fix? I downloaded from the App Store, not Test Flight.

gazoinksboe ,

He actually patched it already. WOW!!! So happy to have offline transcoded files back after leaving Plex!

Grandwolf319 ,

Just tried it and it didn’t work for me:

Could be a version issue

kolorafa ,

Does it support intro skip?

rainynight65 ,

Support for downloading and Chromecast? Sign me up.

couch1potato ,

The jellyfin app has both already… not sure what you’re on about?

rainynight65 ,

Last time I checked, on iOS it didn’t have either.

Edit: just checked, the iOS version still doesn’t have downloads and does not support casting to Chromecast.

couch1potato ,

iOS

…oh

Fantastic to have more selection! I love Findroid but its good to have alternatives!

Edit: downloaded it from Github but cannot connect to my server with same credentials I use in the official app, hm.

Edit2: OK, others have same issue github.com/fredrikburmester/streamyfin/issues/12

Edit3: they just released a fix

fix(android): Support for un-secure plaintext authentication (HTTP) logins

So I will test it again tonight when I have time.

lastweakness ,

If you test it, can you let me know how it compares to Findroid?

RootBeerGuy ,
@RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Once it works, sure. Will need to wait for a fix first.

RootBeerGuy ,
@RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

OK, it works now so I had a look.

At this stage no match for Findroid, but I like the layout of it.

When you play a file it somehow starts playing minimised and you need to tap it it goes full screen.

No automatic rotation, so you need to do it manually.

Haven’t tried the downloading yet and I have no Chromecast to test casting with.

In a couple of updates it might be decent enough already for general use.

lastweakness ,

Ooh, that’s promising. I guess I’ll try it once it matures a bit more then. Thanks for going through the trouble of reviewing it!

Yayyy unsecured connections for logins.

My server isn’t exposed to the outside. I am connecting through local WiFi. If someone manages to get in there I probably have bigger problems than access to my Jellyfin.

suckmyspez ,

A non issue for servers hosted at home that aren’t exposed externally

harsh3466 ,

Awesome! Just joined the test flight. Love the app icon.

RootBeerGuy ,
@RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Nah, the icon looks like some ai-generated garbage, too much detail for such a small size.

But as a first icon, whatever works, I am not complaining! Good to have another app on android for Jellyfin!

TseseJuer ,

you literally complained then said you’re not complaining in the same breath

Chakravanti ,

You apparently can’t read well. That are different things he speaks of. You need a mental evaluation.

    I dislike how it looks. I don’t care it’s there. That’s not complaining. I don’t need this changed. It’s just ugly in my view.

    AppleTV client at some point?

    ji17br ,

    Is there currently any? This is the only reason I’d consider moving from plex.

    g5pw ,

    There’s SwiftFin, but it’s been a while from the last update (iOS app was updated recently though) and there’s a number of issues. It’s usable though (I’m using it).

    CatZoomies ,
    @CatZoomies@lemmy.world avatar

    There’s the official Jellyfin app for Apple TV. It works very well with only minor UI bugs when browsing libraries. Nothing that detracts from or reduces the quality of the service.

    accideath ,

    Surround sound didn’t work for me with the Jellyfin player and with the native player language selection didn‘t work. If you don’t have to transcode and spare a few quid, Infuse is great. Sadly can’t recommend it to my friends accessing my server from outside my home network because of said lack of transcoding.

    IchNichtenLichten ,
    @IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world avatar

    I’m not sure if it’s what you’re looking for but I use Infuse on the ATV for the times the Plex client can’t play a file, usually because it’s DV format.

    kingcake ,

    Play store link is broken :(

    Swarfega ,

    Wonder if it’s a region thing. Not there for me either (UK).

    kingcake ,

    Possibly. There is an apk on the GitHub that you can sideload for now.

    Player2 ,

    Supports downloading a server transcoded file? That’s amazing!

    Would like to see an Fdroid version

    entropicdrift ,
    @entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

    FYI Jellyflix also supports that

    bonn2 ,

    Findroid also recently added this

    Chewy7324 OP ,

    Transcoding and transcoded downloads does not seem to be merged yet, altough there’s a working PR.

    github.com/jarnedemeulemeester/findroid/pull/791

    bonn2 ,

    Ah yeah I forgot I was running the bleeding version, either way it will probably be stable soon ish

    eskuero ,
    @eskuero@lemmy.fromshado.ws avatar

    From what I understand its still restrained by the server in real time so downloading a 2 hour movie would still take two hours 🥲

    DaGeek247 ,
    @DaGeek247@fedia.io avatar

    Is this a bug, or is it actually just limited to the transcode speed? I would love to read the incident/bug report about this.

    entropicdrift ,
    @entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

    It’s limited to the transcode speed, but it’s important to keep in mind that e.g. if you transcode to a lower resolution especially it’ll usually transcode faster than realtime.

    Auli ,

    Then it shouldn’t be limited. I can transcode a movie faster then I watch it even at higher quality.

    entropicdrift , (edited )
    @entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

    Right, I just mean if your connection speed is faster than your server can transcode, then the transcode speed will be the bottleneck

    You can just use Obtainium with the gh releases link

    semperverus ,
    @semperverus@lemmy.world avatar

    I too would rather have an F-droid version instead of having to use Obtainium. There is additional inherent trust by going through F-droid’s process.

    New Jellyfin app ? I’m all for it!

    tempest ,

    I’ve been trying fin Droid which works well but it’s definitely a work in progress.

    n0xew ,

    Looks nice, I’ll give it a try! There’s also a Jellyfin community, don’t hesitate to crosspost there :)

    HybridSarcasm ,

    Love another iOS option.

    mearce ,

    And it works with google cast out of the box!
