I’ve been using the f-droid basis app since it went into alpha and the 2.0 version is really a good update, at least UI wise.

I’ve seen self-hosted matrix servers with 500+ users. So I don’t think it’s a cap, more of a recommendation.

Fair. I have never had a Home Video library, so I don’t know how those are scanned or what they are looking for other than embedded metadata. But yes, sounds like that library type has some issues.

I’ve had initial scans take hours and scans afterwards usually also take some minutes. Why do you think that is an unreasonable amount of time to check all entries for updated metadata?

unending != 40 minutes.

No obvious AI use in the github repo. So probably CBH, but better to get confirmation from @sanitation@lemmy.today .

I use my Nextcloud instance as a OIDC provider for all my other apps.

Where is the source? I could only find the red hatr docker image repository, but no source.

I would be seriously worried about malware on a random USB stick in the wild…

So this is just a “Manager” for offline websites?

Most calender apps are frontends for caldav…

Yes, but it’s always the one people come back too.

They mention the other issues are either being tracked elsewhere or already solved.

At the end of the day, it’s a community project, done by primarily volunteers, who is not making any money doing this. No VC funding to hire developers to take care of these issues.

From one of the Jellyfin devs in the issue you linked, posted in April this year:

Now, let’s address this clearly once and for all. What is possible is unauthenticated streaming. Each item in a Jellyfin library has a UUID generated which is based on a checksum of the file path. So, theoretically, if someone knows your exact media paths, they could calculate the item IDs, and then use that ItemID to initiate an unauthenticated stream of the media. As far as we know this has never actually been seen in the wild. This does not affect anything else - all other configuration/management endpoints are behind user authentication. Is this suboptimal? Yes. Is this a massive red-flag security risk that actively exposes your data to the Internet? No.

At this point, this over-4-year-old issue has gotten posted to HackerNews more than enough times and gotten quite enough unhelpful peanut-gallery comments like those above… We are limiting this issue to Jellyfin collaborators only at this point. Most of the big items are already tracked elsewhere (specifically, unauth playback) or have already been fixed. And many other options are now open to us in a post-10.11 landscape now that we have a proper library database ready.

Plex recently switched the remote watch thing to be behind a paywall. If your PC/App was also on the same local network it would probably work.

People don’t care and/or haven’t looked at the serverinfo page. That actually mentions the type of database in use.

So the “I don’t know” option was probably just the easiest.

Link to the company page? I can’t find anything on jellyfin page that mentions that they are a company.

They are not a company. Why would they want to “make a living” from it?
