This is something we're looking at but it needs to be implemented for all Jellyfin clients and for that we need to specify exactly what links we'd use and the formatting of them. I know @thornbill made an initial MVP for this not that long ago (https://github.com/thornbill/jellyfin-relay) but I don't know if we have any meta issue for it yet.
It would be nice if even just basic url scheme support (like jellyfin://
) could be added so that things like home assistant can open the app remotely. For that to work it doesn't need any hosted service or complex URL routing support.
Hello,
Now is it possible to launch a series with deep link and home assistant?
Describe the feature you'd like
Hello everyone! Let me start by saying thanks for all the amazing development on Jellyfin.
This week I was playing with some automations in Home Assistant and had the ability to launch apps directly on an Android TV device with deep links. This allows to open a specific video on YouTube or open a movie in Netflix. I have searched in a .xml file in the code that handles the deep linking and went through some Issues here on Github and concluded that this is not yet supported.
This would be an amazing feature to have in Jellyfin for Android TV, allowing users to open specific movies, shows, episodes, and maybe even doing this by opening a specific user. An example use case could be telling my Home Assistant Assistant to open a specific movie, and it knowing that this automation was run by me would already open the movie on my account!
Hope there are other people interested in this! Thanks.
