Jellyfin App by Zidoo

There's Recently Viewed (works like "Watching" in HT) on the Jellyfin Home Screen.

 

Hi Mark.
This only seems to work with files that are half-watched. The next episode in a series does not appear in Recently Viewed.

 

Yes that's true - You'll have to bear with me - I'm not an expert with Jellyfin and I don't use TV Series...

The client can only provide info provided by the server - so, say in a standard Android Jellyfin client, is that "Next Episode" information available on the home screen? And if so, how is it presented?

 

Yep.
Like this:


This is my Windows client. The standard Android client is the same.

 

@Eki Shaw

Eki - any chance we could do this too? Add "Next Up" to the Jellyfin client?

 

Appreciate your efforts, Mark.

 

Hi there, we have forwarded your kind advice to our tech team to evaluate, thanks for your feedback!

 

Thanks Mark. We will analyze this function

 

Well, I guess the squeaky wheel does get the oil sometimes!
Thanks, Eki and Mark.

 

Have you found a client for the Z9X players that has full poster walls instead of left-right navigation, with a working Next Up on the home screen?

The Android client is killing my ability to watch movies, I'm not going to sit there and hold the right arrow for 20 minutes while it scans through a genre, letter or collection

 

It seems that with v1.2.05 the player still reports playback progress although playback has already stopped. Happened already several times. Example: Stopped the second Hobbit movie at 20 minutes in and the next day Jellyfin wanted to resume the movie at 40 minutes mark.
Is this happening to others as well?

 

Seem to remember a post about this in the past but not sure if it was the Zidoo client or not.

Not noticed this, but it's possible I wouldn't as I only use Jellyfin for 1080p stuff and tend to watch 4K.

...Testing now. I'll start a few movies and stop at say 5 mins and see if that sticks later...

 

Thanks
You can see in the admin dashboard of the Jellyfin server if the playback is still in progress.

 

Yep got it - started a film, stopped at 9 minutes and it shows as still running at over 19 minutes so far...

Oddly, the activity monitor seems to show utter nonsense as well...

Also, if I go back into the client, it wants to resume at 13:59 but playback is still counting in the admin dashboard.

Crazy!!

Unfortunately I've run out of room on my bug report contents page

 

Even restarting the movie, immediately stopping it which removes it from Recently Viewed doesn't stop the Server continuing to count up - 40 minutes and counting...

But despite the server continuing to count up, it doesn't show as recently played on my iPhone client either.

 

it didnt even stop after 40 minutes?! :O

 

Yep. Maddening.

And reported.

 

Thanks!

 

Yep. Always has with Zidoo's Jellyfin client.

 

Sorry, are those Zidoo apps for Jellyfin, Plex and Emby available on UHD8000?
