slimserver VS jellyfin-tizen

Logitec Media Server - Music server. Yes, I'm old enough to have a still-working original squeezebox, as well as multiple squeezebox radios. They're awesome.

I ripped all my audio CDs, back when I still bought CDs, to flac format and serve them up via: https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver or mpd or both.

Logitech Media Server or Owntone would be my recommendations.

Jellyfin is not ideal for this on its own. If you want some that could scale but also play locally check out Logitech Media Server. A lot of other audio projects are built on its code, much less play super nice with it if you want to expand in the future. Notable features is tons of plugins to integrate webradio, podcasts, etc and the easiest whole house audio setup out there.

For serving local music, the free and open source "Logitech Media Server"[0] is a great solution -- main weakness is the lack of a central organization promoting it. In addition to working smoothly with dedicated ("squeeze") clients which can be Logitech-brand or DIY[1, 2], it has a massive plugin catalog that allows e.g.

- airPlay integration: stream to your squeeze-clients via airPlay, stream to your airPlay clients from squeezebox.

- chromeCast integration: stream to chromeCast devices from squeezeBox.

- upNp integration: stream to upNp clients.

The system was originally developed by "SqueezeBox" who also made (awesome) physical devices. SqueezeBox was acquired by Logitech many years ago. Logitech put out one or two devices before giving up, but they are actually playing really nice by continuing to support development on the server (see [0]).

I cannot help you with this, but this is what I found.

Following this github link.

This is the github repository link I'm following: (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-tizen/blob/a8629f095dc8ef25878796f549defbb306978246/README.md)

If you're actually going to use the extra features of Plex/Jellyfin over a pure media player like Kodi, generally you would install the sever on a headless box, then install the client on your TV or connected media player. Plex is usually a single click app install on most Samsung TVs. Jellyfin might take a bit more work.

there is a Tizen client (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-tizen) but it isn't on the app store so you need to install it with dev mode which isn't easy for the average Joe

The app version is just whatever git HEAD was when I built it, d23ca24. The server version is 10.8.9-1 on a RPi 2 installed via apt.

It's unfortunate but you can compile and deploy an app for Samsung: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-tizen
