    Thank you for posting this. I tend to get a lot of my opensource project info from Lemmy so people who take the time to post it are awesome.

    Just updated my home instance. Can confirm that 10.11.7 is available in the Debian repos and the update went perfect. I got a new kernel in the same update : D

      Hi!

      So I installed jellyfin on Bazzite as per this video.

      But he didn’t explain how to update the server. Could you maybe tell me how you did it with your server? Maybe it could help me figure out how to update mine as well.

        Poke around through the dash. I imagine it’s in the GUI there. Probably under a menu like ‘system’ or ‘about’.

            Ahh bummer. Not sure exactly then. Might have to hop in the terminal and try an --update or find an equivalent with--help. The documentation in the git repo should tell you if nothing else.

              podman stop jellyfin (podman ps to get the actual name of the jellyfin container)

              podman rm jellyfin

              podman pull docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest

              systemctl restart jellyfin.container (or whatever you called your unit when you set it up)

              This suggestion from another commenter worked! Apparently quadlets work with Podman in the background.

    Is it standard practice to release the security updates on GitHub?

    I am a very amateur self hoster and wouldn’t go on the github of projects on my own unless I wanted to read the “read me” for install instructions. I am realizing that I got aware I needed to update my Jellyfin container ASAP only thanks to this post. I would have never checked the GitHub.

      Yes.

      And then the maintainers of the package on the package repository you use will release the patch there. Completely standard operation.

      I recommend younto read up on package repositories on Linux and package maintainers etc.

      I don’t run the arr stack, but this is key. You really should do your due diligence before you update anything. Personally, I wait unless it’s a security issue, and use all the early adopters as beta testers.

        Wait a minute, best security practice is to use the latest version -1?

    The update rolled out perfectly for my Kubernetes setup (using the Docker image). 👍

      No worries. We’ve been communicating with pictures since ancient cave men scrawled pictographs on cave walls with a piece of burnt firewood.

      I know you’re gatekeeping from Turd Mountain, but just for completeness, the reason I use Jellyfin besides the “pretty for my wife” reason is that it keeps track of her progress between clients. She sometimes watches things on her laptop, sometimes her phone, sometimes her tablet, and sometimes the TV, and no matter which one she uses it’ll remember which episode of her show is the next episode. It also highlights when a new episode of something has been added and cues her to watch the new episode that just came out.

      But yeah, if I was alone and only had a pile of anime I’d already seen before, which I only watched from my Linux devices, Samba and VLC would do me fine 😛

        Use NFS for your sanity. Linux samba/CIFS is annoying to deal with.

        Also, mpv

          Honestly, I’m not a big fan if Microsoft generally, but I found NFS to be surprisingly not great for non-permanent infrastructure, whereas SMB took a few minutes and works great, at least in my use cases. Maybe I’m just a loser, though.
