Jellyfin 12 Released

cross-posted from: aussie.zone/post/36389875

Why jump from 10.11.11 directly to 12.0? -> Blog Post

You can find more details about and discuss this release on the official forums.

As always, please ensure you stop your Jellyfin server and take a full backup of your metadata/configs before upgrading!

Direct upgrades from 10.10.7 and 10.11.x to 12.0 are supported; intermediate upgrades are not required. Users running releases older than 10.10.7 are strongly encouraged to upgrade to 10.10.7 before migrating to 12.0.

Installed repository plugins (anything not built-in) should also be removed before migrating. Plugins will likely need time to adapt to the new database changes, so re-adding them afterward is the safest approach for testing.

Official plugins compatible with Jellyfin are available through the stable plugin repository. If you have changed to the unstable plugin repository please change it back.

Go to Dashboard -> Plugins -> Manage Repositories
Update the Plugin Repository URL to: https://repo.jellyfin.org/files/plugin/manifest.json

After migrating please perform the following steps.

Perform a full library scan to restore alternative versions
Run the "Optimize database" scheduled task

Multiple versions for episodes

❤️

Edit: so I have two libraries, 4K and HD because of different viewing locations. Transcoding 4K to HD is not an option, hardware is too slow for that.

Now my multi quality tvshows get combined into one “view” per show which is nice. But it seems it still shows seperate episodes per quality and does not track viewing progress yet sadly or am I missing something?

I don’t have the arr stack now, but when I fiddled with it a year or two ago I had to set one language. I ended up scrapping it because of it and just continuing with the streaming services. I also hate dubbed anything, but have small kids who want to see their shows in Norwegian. Switching them over to English on shows or movies they already know in Norwegian would be a great way for them to learn. Maybe I get to watch the Disney movies in English with them finally.
