Poor Things. I turned it off after~30 minutes.
Just a dude working on viv, a Jellyfin Roku client while listening to punk records & watching horror movies.

The Talented Mr. Ripley. Awful, truly awful!
Poor Things. I turned it off after~30 minutes.
I just want to watch some damn videos without being someone else’s payday.
Amen!
Neat, I just figured Roku clients were just going to get just enough attention to work.
Nope. We have a team dedicated to working on the Roku client. They’re constantly working on not only bug fixes, but also improvements and new functionality.
🤘 Right on! Thanks for posting these.
Several of these have never been brought up to the devs, so this is the first time seeing anyone ask for them.
The Roku client for jellyfin is also a futureless husk of a client.
How so? What do you see as missing?
Money. The answer is money.
Empire Records is a 5 ⭐ film, yet holds a 35% rotten tomatoes score.
We’re well past that day. Foo Fighters are played on our Classic Rock station.

His name? Creed Bratton.
What settings are you using under Playback -> Transcoding?
I also simply watch in my browser when on desktop.
If it needs to transcode, then it transcodes. I don’t see the need to put extra effort in trying to avoid it.
I’ve been rallying against clever code for years!
Sure, it makes you have less lines for your l33t code solutions, but in the real world, it sacrifices the maintainability of code that others will eventually work on.
Between a clever 1 line fix and maintainable 10 line fix, I’ll choose the 10 line every time.
Yep. This feels just about right to me 🤘
Seemingly every recipe website. They tell a long, unrelated story, cover the page with ads, popups, slideouts, timer triggered ads, videos, etc.
It’s almost impossible to see the recipe under all the crap.
Yeah, that tracks.
At work someone estimated adding a section of static content to a page that uses React as 3 story points.
They were searching for components that would style the header and paragraph elements just as they wanted them, but were coming up short.
Instead I simply added it with html elements and a couple of lines of CSS.
5 minutes. Done.
