Currently, logs are written to /var/lib/jellyfin/log/. Could you update the service file (i.e. pass --logdir) to write logs to /var/log/jellyfin/.
Could you also add noto-fonts to the list of dependencies, see https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/18328 for details.
I just noticed the current package already embeds the .net runtime, so the dependency on aspnet-runtime-6.0 is no longer needed, please remove
UPDATE: as of jellyfin 12.0 you need to upgrade to the newest version of npm and nodejs-lts-krypton to build jellyfin-web
for 10.11.11 and below:
the webui (jellyfin-web) only builds with npm version 10.9.2. there's an archive of that npm version up here - you can manually install it with pacman -U and use the upstream jellyfin-web arch package to build. for me this builds a working frontend.
Would you be willing to also make a package for jellyfin-web-bin ? The git one is slow to build on low power devices, and it could happen that it becomes incompatible with jellyfin-serer-bin being ahead of the stable release. Would be nice to have a matching -web-bin package.
@void09 Hi, I can't find your comment but I think what you need is the jellyfin-bin package which has previously been removed from AUR. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to add it back.
@marsxyz that's because the package is out of date and that version is not hosted anymore. If you edit the PKGBUILD with the latest version and its checksum it will install just fine.
Hopefully the maintainer will update the PKGBUILD.
Not usable right now because the link to download the binary are dead. They have been for a while now.
Consider switching to other packages.
update it
Hey there, with recent updates I began experiencing playback issues on Android TV and LG Web OS apps.
On my troubleshooting analysis I noticed, that my archlinuxarm installation from this AUR package didn't use jellyfin-ffmpeg in Jellyfin streaming logs:
ffmpeg version n7.0.1 Copyright (c) 2000-2024 the FFmpeg developers
So I modified "/var/lib/jellyfin/config/encoding.xml":
<EncoderAppPath>/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg</EncoderAppPath>
<EncoderAppPathDisplay>/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg</EncoderAppPathDisplay>
Log After that:
ffmpeg version 6.0.1-Jellyfin Copyright (c) 2000-2023 the FFmpeg developers
Perhaps it should somehow be baked into this package?
Please update it, url is not valid anymore

jellyfin-webfrom[extra]and this package. If you are on aarch64, the arch4edu repository also provides prebuilt binaries for this package and all its dependencies if you want a quick installation.
