Jellyfin Rewind - Review Your Music of 2024
2 years ago by Chaphasilor [he/him] to c/jellyfin
Hey @everyone!
I just launched this year's Jellyfin Rewind, and I think you might be interested in it.
Jellyfin Rewind is similar to Spotify Wrapped, but made for people who use Jellyfin for their music listening. It let's you take a look at your listening habits of 2024.
If you're using Finamp's beta version, you can even import all of your offline plays to your Jellyfin server this year, since Finamp's beta automatically records all plays that couldn't be sent to your server.

Interesting, I never had any issues with the plugin! Are you sure it's the reason?
At the bottom of this forum thread I posted some screenshots. This was a while ago, before I started dissecting my setup. Essentially, after adding a new track or album, there was about a 66% chance that it wouldn't have the artist as you can see in the screenshots. After I started tagging my music and setting the covers to "Front cover" instead of putting them as separate jpg files, it wouldn't pick up the cover for anything.
I spun up a fresh install of the latest version and when I removed that plugin, everything started getting the proper metadata. It was a reproducible issue.
This also happened with my home video library, where it wouldn't get screen grabs for the thumbnails. Movies and TV series were fine though.
I'm not 100% sure on the next bit, but it also seemed like the playback reporting plugin wasn't working at all even on the fresh server. After playing media and waiting, it would never get populated. So combine that with my previous issue, and the fact that it hasn't had an update in a while, I thought it was just incompatible with the current version and cut my losses. I just wanted to get my server working back the way it was and it was an issue I've been dealing with for months, so I removed the plugin.
I haven't done any recent testing though, and couldn't find much discussion on if others are having this issue.
Of course this has nothing to do with what you've made. It's not your fault the plugin isn't working in my setup, and it isn't the plugin's fault Jellyfin is lacking the proper data for you to work with natively. Hopefully I can re-visit this issue and get it working in the future.
Even with a clean server I found the plugin wasn't pulling any data and made it so album art and artist information wouldn't show up without a manual scan of each track.
So that is the reason? I had to manually rescan my entire music library ever since 10.9 released.

This looks cool! Unfortunately it requires the playback reporting plugin which I removed as it causes issues with later versions of Jellyfin (for me at least). Even with a clean server I found the plugin wasn't pulling any data and made it so album art and artist information wouldn't show up without a manual scan of each track. I was still able to find some interesting stats without the plugin though. Thanks!
