I have Kodi set up, and it seems to work well. There are different ways to do it, I did the database merge option which prevents you having non-jellyfin files in your library but it works nicely.

I also have broadcast TV streams and Disney+ through there too, which gives it a smart-TV feeling which is nice for others using it.

I'm running it on a Linux laptop, so I don't see any reason why I couldn't have both. I'll check it out.

I have Kodi connected to broadcast TV streams and Disney+, can I do this with Jellyfin?

Nice, thanks! I'll check it out.

Oh no I have an old laptop literally strapped to the back on my TV. It's running the Jellyfin server (among many other things) and I installed Kodi on it along with a PC connected remote to control it.

It works well so I haven't looked any further.

I use the Android app, and yeah, I wish you could download and play like on commercial streaming apps. It's not just the hunting down of the file, but also the remembering how much of the episode you've watched when part way through, and having Jellyfin know that you've watched the episode so the play next is right.

I don't have Android TV :(

I head the Jellyfin apps aren't great. However I admit to never testing them.

How about Jellyfin server, synced with Kodi for playing on the TV?

My instance's image cache is like 230GB. Plus a bunch more for the db. Can confirm storage is needed.

(unrelated question 😶 - anyone running pictrs 0.5 on local storage happily?)

Yeah no house would stay on the market for over a year with the reason being something a buyer could fix with a few grand.

I was surprised to see that I could see other users’ documents.

TBH this is how I expected it to work. A shared family document repository. I'm not against having more granular permissions, though!
