Application

Jellyfin

Description

Jellyfin is a Free Software Media System that puts you in control of managing and streaming your media. It is an alternative to the proprietary Emby and Plex, to provide media from a dedicated server to end-user devices via multiple apps. Jellyfin is descended from Emby's 3.5.2 release and ported to the .NET Core framework to enable full cross-platform support. There are no strings attached, no premium licenses or features, and no hidden agendas: just a team who want to build something better and work together to achieve it.

Build notes

Latest stable Jellyfin release, downloaded directly from the official Jellyfin release repositories rather than waiting for the Arch Linux packages to be rebuilt, so new releases are picked up as soon as Jellyfin publish them.

To build from the Arch Linux packages instead, pass the build argument JELLYFIN_SOURCE=arch.
