  • May I ask a bit more?

    Can you launch on system start up as opposed to user, yes in my experience.

    Can you login when the user has not yet been logged in, yes in my experience so long as the program is launched by the system as a service and not a user login option.

    If the machine has multiple monitors, you may need to test, as I standardly use a phone (android) to remote to my desktop/laptop seveer environments where I can individually choose a monitor if they have more than 1 I believe, but having one screen on the phone, I don’t view both at the same time… nor would it be convenient…

    It’s a free 2 minute try it out really. The uninstall if you don’t like. If you really like it maybe consider hosting your own. But otherwise you can use it from their severs for free and it will remember your recent connections and passwords if you want on your local device…

    I feel like a salesperson for a free product lol

    Edit: I realized I asked no questions, did that answer yours?











  • Sir, I posted elsewhere and it appears your expertice may help my experience. Android/web allows shuffle at the top for music. Roku only offers me shuffle in shows. Is there a way I can enable it in music and/or is there somewhere I could donate something small to your time to add a shuffle button to roku’s music client?

    Edit: it’s very possible maybe I have my server or client settings set up wrong.

    This is what I see on Android for the client under music



  • I run the server from Mint, play from Roku client. I have a copyparty server set up on that mint sever as well, and we resorted to pulling up the website and having a 80s competition, trying to top the other but not by much so we didn’t go to what we thought would be the best song right aways, which we played from our phones so the other could scroll and look. Hers Samsung, mine Motorola, so both android.

    Edit: Just checked the Android app for jellyfin. It appears we jumped from jellyfin to copyparty to early, the jellyfin app has the shuffle button.

    At least we still made it fun


  • We were using Jellyfin to watch old episodes of Sherlock Holmes last night, during a break we switched over to playing a few songs I had thrown on there. The interface for movies and shows seems great but my spouse asked me, “why is there a shuffle option for shows?” To which I said idk, maybe if someone watches something like family guy it doesn’t matter. But then when we were under my music section, I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to use shuffle. It was probably user error, but it seemed strange
