We're back with another release for Android TV and Fire TV users containing a lot of bugfixes!
Jellyfin Android v2.4.0 - More audio codecs, stability improvements and various tweaks
Compared to the last major release, Jellyfin Android 2.4.0 isn't as feature packed, but it still includes some useful changes and various fixes. Read on to learn more!
Android TV v0.12
Today we're bringing the Android TV app to 2021 with a modern design and tons of other changes.
Jellyfin Android v2.3.0 - Improved Integrated Player
After a prolonged beta testing period, we're excited to announce that version 2.3.0 of the Jellyfin Android app is now available!
Regarding the Android betas
With the release of the first Android TV 0.12 release beta, this is a good time to explain how our Android beta programs work and how to start using them. The mobile app has used a public beta channel for around a year now and with the Android TV app coming close to a new release we're adding a similar program for that as well.
Introducing Jellyfin Media Player
Jellyfin Media Player is a new Jellyfin client option intended to offer a more user-friendly experience. It takes the user interface from jellyfin-web, including the playback interface, and combines it with the extensive codec support from MPV.
A Note About Privacy and Expo for iOS
When it comes to Jellyfin, we guarantee that there is no involuntary tracking, from the server to the mobile apps. This still remains true, even with today's update to the Apple App Store.
The Jellyfin CDN: Mirrorbits for the masses
For many projects, distributing binary assets is easy: put the files on GitHub and you're done. It's not something many think about. But at Jellyfin, we needed something more robust, something able to handle our needs more elegantly than GitHub or a basic web server could. And both for those interested, and for those supporting other similar projects, I'd like to share how we do it.
Android app now on F-Droid
We're happy to announce the immediate availability of the Android mobile app on the F-Droid store. The F-Droid version does not contain any proprietary libraries and builds are fully reproducible.
Please refresh your Jellyfin Apt key on Debian/Ubuntu
Our GPG key for signing our Debian and Ubuntu repositories (https://repo.jellyfin.org/debian
and https://repo.jellyfin.org/ubuntu
) is set to expire next month.
