Jellyfin

This skill is a fork of the emby skill that allows audio playback from a Jellyfin server

About

Stream music from your Jellyfin server using Mycroft! Play all songs by an artist or an instant mix of any artist/album/song in your Jellyfin library.

This has been tested on Manjaro using VLC audio backend.

Installation

• mycroft-msm install https://github.com/tuxfoo/jellyfin-skill

Picroft

You will need to install vlc, installing just vlc-bin will not work which is really annoying. This requirement might change as mycroft supports more audio backends.

• sudo apt-get install vlc

The common play framework does not work on picroft at the moment as the queries timeout before the request is complete, this is a bug in the playback control skill so for now you will have to use the "from jellyfin" intent, eg; "Play artist Blackmore's Night from jellyfin"

Common Play Framework

This skill supports the common play framework! This means you don't have to specify "Jellyfin" in your intent. For Example

• "Play The Beatles"
• "Play artist The Beatles"
• "Play playlist fun mix"
• "Play song Hey Jude"
• "Play heavy metal"
• "next song"
• "pause"
• "stop"
• "resume"

From Intent

If you have other music services you can use the from intent

• "Play artist Blackmore's Night from jellyfin"
• "Play playlist fun mix from jellyfin"
• "Play rock from jellyfin"

OTHER Features

You can ask for the track information.

• "what song is this"

You can shuffle your music

• "shuffle"

You can add the currently playing song to a playlist(it has to exist)

• "add to (playlist name)"
• "add to fun mix"
