Jellyfin

The Jellyfin integration exposes a Jellyfin server as a media source in Home Assistant. Support is currently limited to music, movie and TV show libraries only. Other libraries will not appear in the media browser. This integration has been tested with Jellyfin server version 10.6.4 and later.

Additionally, this integration sets up every media session connected to the Jellyfin server as a media player in Home Assistant to provide media controls for each session.

Browsing media inside Home Assistant in a player’s context provides all libraries of type Movie and Series.
