I’m interested in using Jellyfin. I learned that you can install the Jellyfin “channel” on any Roku device to stream to it. I have a TCL Roku TV and when I search for Jellyfin nothing appears. Also when I follow the link from Jellyfin’s website to Roku’s website it redirects to the main channel page and when I search for it there it doesn’t appear.
Is Jellyfin still available on Roku? I can’t find anything online indicating that it shouldn’t be.
Here is a forum thread on the Jellyfin forums from 2 days ago with an explanation and a solution. Looks like somehow the Roku Jellyfin client somehow has been marked as Beta which requires some extra steps for installation.
Dunno if it’s been delisted since, but I installed it on all my Rokus and Roku TVs a few weeks back without issue.
I installed it on a Roku device 2 weeks ago. Was as simple as searching for it on the device like any other channel.
Jellyfin also has a web interface. http://SERVERIP:8096
Obviously, put your ip in there.
Is there any way to jailbreak a tcl roku tv?
I stream Kodi to my Roku through an android app called Yatse. I stream to “local device” and then use another app called Web Video Caster which uses the Roku Channel to stream to it (the way Roku has locked the TV down).
So maybe have a look at those two apps if they’re any use to you. It ain’t jailbreaking, but it is subversion
