Support Jellyfin? about pyemby

[mezz64]

Follow the instructions in those release notes to determine your BASE_PATH. That will determine whether or not you need to specify /jellyfin after the host path. Post your yaml for how you have the component configured. Others are using this without issue so I think it's likely a configuration error since Jellyfin has not diverged from the Emby API specifications.

Thanks @mezz64 I removed jellyfin from baseurl in jellyfin settings, works now.

Could you let me know what doesn't work? The Emby API hasn't changed in some time so if Jellyfin is based on Emby 3.5.2 I'd think it should more or less work as-is.

[JustAMan]

This is probably a future-proofing question, given Emby released 4.0 recently and it's likely their and our API will diverge over time.

[mezz64]

In general, I'm open to accommodating Jellyfin. I'd be willing to fix any issues preventing present compatibility and would asses any future divergence when it happens, either by adding the appropriate options or making a fork.

Great, thanks!

I get this in Home Assistant using pyemby in jellyfin @mezz64

2020-01-18 19:37:59 ERROR (MainThread) [pyemby.server] Error fetching Emby data: 0, message='Attempt to decode JSON with unexpected mimetype: text/html; charset=utf-8', url='http://localhost:8096/jellyfin/web/index.html 2020-01-18 19:37:59 ERROR (MainThread) [pyemby.server] Unable to register emby client.

[mezz64]

Can you post the full log please? What are you supplying as the host path?

[mezz64]

Second followup, have you read the Jellyfin release notes from 10.4.1 (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/releases/tag/v10.4.1)? Given the path posted in your error text it looks like this may be your problem. Please double check your host path.

Hello @mezz64 !

That is everything related to pyemby in my HomeAssistant log.

I tried both localhost and my ip-adress with the same result.

This is on nightly 2020-02-24 btw.

Do you mean url should be http://localhost:8096/jellyfin/web/index.html#!/home.html instead of http://localhost:8096/jellyfin/web/index.html ?

Thanks @mezz64 :-)
Let us know if you need any help. Eventually it may diverge, but we'll hope to give notice before that happens. At that point I may ask for advice on getting included in Home Assistant 👍
