Just a dude working on viv, a Jellyfin Roku client while listening to punk records & watching horror movies.

3·1 day agoYou’re very welcome! I’ve since left the Roku team (I’m still on a few other teams) to work on my own client.
If you’re interested, it’s called viv and is available in the Roku channel store.
And since this is a programming community, here’s the source code: https://github.com/1hitsong/viv
Do I get to drink from the firehose?
Yep. That code was merged and released roughly 2 years ago.
Because I wanted to listen to music while doing the dishes.
The Jellyfin Roku client didn’t support audio playback, so I wrote it myself… while learning Roku’s proprietary language 🙄
43·8 months agoGreat… Now we’ll need to make another client team in Jellyfin 😆
Yeah, something is failing in playback and it’s simply falling back to the previous screen. I’d suggest posting this to the troubleshooting forum. I’m sure the support team will be happy to help out!
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.
I’m a JF developer and personally use Kavita for my books 🤣
I’m one of the Jellyfin Roku devs. What bugs are you experiencing?
Yeah, it’s kinda wild.
Roku channels are created using 2 proprietary languages, BrightScript and SceneGraph. You will never use them for anything other than creating Roku channels. 😐
