Found my way here as part of the Grand Reddit Migration. Applying for refugee status please. (1st day on Lemmy, looks good gotta say)

Fuck that cretinous spez and his money-grabbing lobotomy business plan.

Double edged sword as it is, I'll probably prefer Lemmy anyway...

Thanks.

Enjoy your day.

I've had an issue with an LG smart TV (not really an LG, its a re-brand). The web browser was horrifically slow and it flat out refused to play anything. It has very limited processing resources. I was planning on side loading the jellyfin client for LG TV's but that was all dropped in favour of a chromecast. Instantly solved the problem (and they're quite cheap on social media marketplaces)

Other than that, I've never had an issue with any client.

My media is a mix of pretty much everything available. 264, 265, avi etc etc. I occasionally have an issue with 265 media, stuttering. Easily solved by deleting and redownloading a 264 version. Transcoding (or not, dependant on client) is all handled automatically by Jellyfin.

Hope that helps?

Well that's an ask. Once a year can't be that bad. Can it?

Oh that's a good shout. I'll definitely look into that. Thank you very much!!

Goodness me. Thanks so much for your detailed reply. I appreciate the time spent looking into this and the great suggestions. I will look into all of the above. Jellyseerr/Ntfy looks like the best option. Thanks again.

Scrub that. Someone just bought to my attention building a WhatsApp bot in Node Red. I can then use the webhook notifier in Jellyfin to send events to it.

Oh, this I have to see...

Yes. Bedfordshire.

Absolutely.

Kind of glad I'm part of the Lemmigration.

Been 24hrs, going to stay.

Yep. Telegram was suggested to me as a solution in the official Jellyfin Discord. Should be well documented? (I never looked tbh as convincing all my users to download telegram would be difficult; the elderly hate change and I'd have to go and set it up for them and then teach them how to use it)

Appreciate the reply. Yes. Its on the list for automated request/download. Was holding out for a WhatsApp option first, but as that seems impossible, I'll be going down the sonarr/radarr route now.

Thanks.

That sounds interesting. Will look into that.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks!

I had considered going down the road of Notification listener (windows toast notifications). Sanitise the output and pipe into pywhatkit to generate a Whatsapp group post.
