Just a dude working on the Jellyfin Roku client while listening to my punk records and watching horror movies.

I knew about the audio option not matching if you choose a different video option. In fact, we noted that in our release post: https://jellyfin.org/posts/roku-200#-tv-episode-version-support
The others I’ve not heard of before. If it every becomes a nuisance, please open a ticket so we can investigate.
Oh yeah, you’re the person who asked to have the season and episode number added to the OSD. I completed that update and am waiting for the PR to be reviewed and merged.
I’m also a big TV show watcher. All the things you mentioned I’ve had no issue with in the Roku client.
My first question would be if your server properly identified the episodes. That process is driven by the file names. Does your naming scheme follow the suggested format? https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/shows/
I’m one of the programmers of the Jellyfin Roku client. Would you mind sharing what things you found to be buggy and annoying in the client? We’re always looking for feedback for things to work on and improve.
Yeah, we altered our releases so we could get bug fixes out quicker - separate from features.
In fact, 2.0.5 is scheduled for release tomorrow 🤘
Almost daily to the Jellyfin Roku client.
Come join us if you want to work on some cool crap!
Building Firefox from scratch.
We got Disco Inferno for our first and didn’t know we’d get a different song the 2nd time.
Everyone was scream singing One Way or Another the whole ride. Amazing!
It’s easier for my needs in part because my family has Roku, and there is a built-in app for Jellyfin on Roku devices.
🤘 Hope it’s working well for y’all.
Especially funny since Jellyfin falls on it’s face (or at least stumbles and makes difficult) trying to do most of what I actually use my Plex server for.
Do you mind sharing what things it falls/stumbles with? We’re always looking for feedback to make it better.
🤘 Enjoy
PR opened to merge the remote subtitle function into the next major release: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-roku/pull/1694
Here’s a breakdown of how it works: https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-movie-remote-subtitle-management?pid=15806
I played around with the remote subtitles download this afternoon. I got it working. Still need to clean it up and get it looking nice, but here’s a demo of it in action.
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
The first would be the ability to shuffle a playlist. I loved that shuffle was added episodes a while back.
This is possible today with the current release.
Click on your Playlist library. Then, on the grid of Playlists, highlight the one you want and instead of pressing “OK” press “Play” on your remote. It’ll shuffle play the highlighted playlist.
For the subtitle one, I’m unsure what capabilities the API offers us and what functionality Roku would support, but it’s at least worth taking a look and seeing what’s possible.
The Roku client has made some amazing improvements and I’m thankful for those devs, but it’s still behind the Android version in terms of features.
Any features in particular you find yourself missing?
The Roku app, from my experience, is the best client for Jellyfin.
