Install Jellyfin on your Samsung TV
This project makes it easy to install a native Jellyfin application on your Samsung TV. Samsung TV's since 2015 run an operating system called Tizen, Jellyfin has an officially supported application, however they haven't yet made it onto the Samsung app store.
In this repo I've made it easier to install this on your TV, without needing to spend too long setting up a full development environment.
For documentation about the Jellyfin app, see here.
Usage
-
Ensure your Samsung TV is in developer mode
- If you're having trouble, make sure you're using the "123" button on the remote when typing in "12345".
-
Run this command replacing the final argument with the IP of your Samsung TV
docker run --rm georift/install-jellyfin-tizen <samsung tv ip>
Supported platforms
At the moment, these steps should work on any amd64 based system. Platforms like the Raspberry Pi, which run ARM chips, are not yet supported, but we might have some progress soon..
Credits
This is possible thanks to these projects, this repo is just a quick pulling together of all their hard work into some simply steps:
- jellyfin-tizen
- jeppevinkel/jellyfin-tizen-builds for providing development builds
- vitalets/docker-tizen-webos-sdk for a docker container preinstalled with the Tizen SDK
