When and how to update? #25

Open danwie opened 1 month ago

danwie commented 1 month ago

I have already installed using this project a couple of months ago. I updated to jellyfin server 10.9.1. I'm now curious of when and how I can update to latest version of the client.

  1. How can I find out what version of jellyfin tizen I have installed.

  2. Where can I see the current version of jellyfin tizen?

  3. Does the install using docker method command works when updating also? Or do I need to remove the app from my TV first?

Sorry if these questions have already been answered.

I can answer some of the questions:

For the docker command to work, at least for me, was adding --ulimit nofile=1024:65536 to the command, so the full command would be: docker run --rm --ulimit nofile=1024:65536 georift/install-jellyfin-tizen $TV_IP_ADDRESS

Because this error: library initialization failed - unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memory/tizen-studio/tools/ide/bin/tizen.sh: line 143:

You need to remove Jellyfin client from the TV before, I had it installed, updated has errored out on : app_id[AprZAARz4r.Jellyfin] install failed[118, -11], reason: Author certificate not match :

After that everything went smoothly, app (re)installed, and working fine. Hope it helps

@akrasic thanks for the helpful tip. was the jellyfin-tizen client updated (to 10.9.1 web related) or just some of the dependencies?

akrasic commented 1 month ago

Yes, it was updated to 10.9.1, it pulls it from here https://github.com/jeppevinkel/jellyfin-tizen-builds . You basically get the web client. IMO much better than the Android TV client I have on Shield.

I'm curious. Do you have it working with 10.9.1 on your TV? Me as well as others can't get it running currently. Some people seem to get a header issue right when launching, and mine freezes after I sign in.

I don't currently have a definite source of the issue, so while I technically have 10.9.1 and now 10.9.2 builds in my repository, I don't currently recommend using them.

akrasic commented 1 month ago

I'm using 10.9.1 still, haven't upgraded yet. I'll see when I have time in the day to upgrade the server and client to 10.9.2 and report back.

@jeppevinkel Sorry it took bit longer than I expected, I've upgraded the server and TV app to 10.9.2. Login works and playback works. Worth noting is - I'm connecting to a machine on local network, and using the LAN IP + port to connect directly to Jellyfin, without any reverse proxies between.

I had a similar setup when I faced the issues. I have since gotten it to work thanks to a fix being pushed to the release-10-9-z branch of the jellyfin-web repository. It appears that some TVs were just unaffected by the issue. Probably due to different version of firmware or software on the TV.

Selecting The Jellyfin-prerelease version with this installer should now work for everyone since the latest release of that includes the fix.

That's brilliant news, thanks for sharing.

I should also add. For any releases after https://github.com/jeppevinkel/jellyfin-tizen-builds/releases/tag/2024-05-20-1647 and going forward, you will no longer need to remove the old Jellyfin client when updating. I got the certificate stuff sorted out so it now uses a consistent certificate between builds which allows you to seamlessly update and downgrade as you see fit with any releases from that point on.

You will need to uninstall any releases older than that to get it though.

This means no more re-doing sign in when updating 😅
