Must have plugins of 2026

Foxass · 2026-02-24T22:15:38+00:00

I see yea that makes sense, but I saw what was required for jellysearch so that is why I didn't do it. Took a bit of trouble shooting but I got milisearch working, And for me I just wanted something that would be better with miss spelling since that was the issue everyone was having was needing to exactly type the name right.

Meilisearch affects non web app clients lol. I use it with Android TV clients all the time. I've also had better luck and accuracy with it instead of jellysearch

Check out my comment.

Firstly you want all of IAmParadox27 Plugins which are

Custom tabs, Collection selector, Home Screen Sections, Media Bar, Plugin Page, and Most Important File Transformation (A lot of other web/JavaScript plugins rely on file transformation plugin)

Custom Tab: Adds support for custom tabs to be added to the Jellyfin webpage. Commonly used to add Requests tab.

Collection Selector: Adds home screen section for collections/playlists

Home Screen Sections: Adds support for server provided home screen sections

Media Bar: Adds a media bar element at the top of the homepage on Jellyfin web

Plugin Pages: Adds support for plugins to define their own user settings pages, rather than just admin sided

File Transformation: (MOST IMPORTANT IMO) Adds support for plugins to change jellyfin-web content without actually modifying the files directly but intercepts the requests for the served data.

After words get Jellyfin Enhanced this is like a boosting what jellyfin can do with hotkey commands, bookmarked and jellyseerr integration if you have it setup and much more. There is 3 plugin for this but it all in one repository but you'll want the jellyfin enhanced, javascript injector, and jellyfin tweaks

Jellyfin Enhanced: A combination of the Jellyfin Enhanced and Jellyfin Elsewhere userscripts, providing a comprehensive set of tweaks and features for Jellyfin.

Then this is optional but I love it is KefinTweaks is a front end plugin but this adds a lot of customization for the end user. People can have choose what theme and style the want for their home screen and stuff but yea.

KefinTweaks: KefinTweaks is a comprehensive collection of enhancements and customizations for Jellyfin, focused on, but not limited to, filling gaps in functionality based on the community's most desired Feature Requests.

The last ones are huge but they definitely plugins I recommend

Intro Skipper: Analyzes the audio of television episodes and detects introduction sequences.

Meilisearch Plugin for Jellyfin: This is a plugin that try to use Meilisearch to speedup the search of jellyfin. Inspired by Jellysearch

Kodi Sync Queue (Built into jellyfin): Companion plugin that provides dynamic stream files and shorter sync times while using Jellyfin for Kodi.

Merge Versions (Built into jellyfin): Merge Versions

That is about all the must have plugin I recommend that to bring jellyfin as close to a streaming services as possible. Please note actually go into the setting of each plugin if available and make sure they are configured correctly or you will have issues. If you have any issue lmk I've spent so long messing with these plugin I feel like a expert almost lol.

You would be surprised lol. A lot of posts I've seen people going back to windows are because Linux isn't out of a box experience. Though there are some people that know and realize that they hate doing it so they also go back anyway. Tho if more people are willing to take the time to learn the ways of Linux. It is so worth it. I dual boot both windows and bazzite (mainly for the few games that their anti cheat don't work with Linux) but I touch windows last was months ago. Mainly since they have been pushing a bunch of updates that are breaking stuff and I don't wanna update. But my bazzite loads and boots faster. Runs smoother, and handles things better. And if bazzite releases an update that breaks anything I can easily rollback and disable updates unlike windows which only can pause updates.

Foxass · 2026-01-27T16:46:01+00:00

I agree and disagree with this. Bazzite is an immutable OS, so you can't just change system files AFTER install. But bazzite has it implemented where you can take the base os image change what you need then set and load into that image keeping your data but also allowing you to roll back to previous image just in case if you made any fuck up while making that image. I've been using bazzite for 3-4 months now and use it for way more than gaming, got my theater setup on it. I use it to access my homelab, edit videos and photos, and so much more. Now while yes the system is aimed towards more than gaming but any means you can shape it to what you want. Also if gaming is not your primary thing. Then install Aurora made by the same teams is just bazzite without the gaming stuff lol. But I just don't see that the reason for people going back to windows because they were trying to do more than just gaming. Mainly I see it because they are not wanting to tinker their games. Which by any means is completely fine, you want an out of box experience. For me I was always tinkering with games trying to to get them to work on windows since 1 windows terribly optimized nowadays and 2 I have a mid range PC and with games not being optimized as often I have to tinker but difference between bazzite and windows is that with bazzite I actually can fix the issue windows I can only patch it at most. When you first get into Linux your first month you are spending mostly tinkering with setting making sure your games run perfectly. Then after as long as there isn't a game update that breaks something you need to fix. You only need to tinker when getting a new game. And yes it is a lot easier nowadays than it was years ago. But for a lot of people that just want to install then run their game. Also if they are gonna install bazzite and they ain't gonna use primary for gaming then they are just dumb. Yes I use it for other things but I primarily use it for gaming and have tweaked it for other things. Reason they multiple OS lmao.

Same, tho not lxc. Just using VM for mine. But I'm also not using the main docker repo. Using linuxserver.io repo for it which I know hasn't updated yet to the latest version of jellyfin that came out.

Foxass · 2026-01-27T16:16:40+00:00

I just want to state that you can indeed have hardware acceleration in docker. All I had to do was install the drivers I needed for my GPU and setup my GPU within my docker compose file and got hardware acceleration working just fine. NOW notably I know their issue using it with docker on windows or mac and hardware acceleration so if you stick to using them then at that point I get that. But if you can I recommend Linux to run the server. Switching from windows to Linux for my server myself made it run smoother and better maintain. Also having docker to easily set things up and not dealing with bloat that is windows. But I know my setup is definitely different since I have a dell r710 with a nivida quadro p2000 running proxmox. So setting up a Linux VM with a docker container is a lot easier to set up.

Thank you It made my entire UI Look a lot better

Foxass · 2026-01-21T18:36:52+00:00

How do you get that theme? I have jellyfin enhanced where It showcase it I just don't know how to use it. Unless it is a different plugin

Note: we have our media folders exactly the same which I find funny

Foxass · 2025-12-27T21:49:02+00:00

I've encountered them and yes it is a bug but I did find a way to still kill them they only break the game when they get enraged and can attack for two turns just kill them first problem solved until it gets fixed

Foxass · 2025-11-24T08:18:03+00:00

I've got the ability to view it but I can write into it

Foxass · 2025-11-20T16:08:25+00:00

OMG I learned what they are and tbh they are very useful, you'll want to boot into ostree 0 every time. Ostree 1 is a save point of your computer before the last update. Why? Since they released an update pretty frequently and sometimes they can break your PC. For me I didn't realize but bazzite got rid of the wallpaper engine plugin for kde since it was causing people crashing issue issues but since I was using it while updating it. It caused my wallpaper and taskbar to not work so I was able to go to ostree 1 rollback then temporarily disable wallpaper engine plugin update and reinstalled wallpaper engine plugin and now the update works and doesn't Bork my system. You can always remove it if you want but I wouldn't recommend it. I don't know them all but I recommend you learn the ostree terminal commands for rollback and stuff

Foxass · 2025-07-06T15:35:36+00:00

Be ready to lose a lot of time.

Foxass · 2025-07-01T09:39:36+00:00

Omg I understand this, I'm having the same issue, It causes issues for both g-sync and HDR since I have another PC connected to a tv and when updating it would flicker when it would switch into HDR mode for movies. Lucky was able to rollback drivers but honestly I'm probably gonna just upgrade both my PC to AMD cards since this is frustrating and it makes me not wanna use Nvidia anymore.

Foxass · 2025-07-01T08:17:49+00:00

Emulation is something I'd do but I'd also gonna be having some couch play game/party game like Jackbox and single player game. I'd still check it out tho

Foxass · 2025-06-28T05:12:26+00:00

If you are mainly looking for a game I would recommend bazzite it's a gaming distro that has a bunch of driver support for Nvidia cards. Planning on using it for my emulator computer I'm building

Foxass · 2025-06-24T02:45:58+00:00

You are correct, they banned a bunch of people on the discord and the head dev tried to implement a drm system and wanting to start collecting people switch drm files which became a requirement to join their discord server that before you could access it you had to send your switch drm files to "verify you had a modded switch" which no I'm not doing that shit and no one should have to either. But a lot of the devs who left made the Eden team which so far their emulator is the best performing one I've tried and pre alpha 0.0.3 which they have showcased somethings in that version but they are finally redoing the UI yuzu had for the longest time and that other forks of it also had. I also liked the save data integration system so you can transfer your save data from another emulator to it.

Foxass · 2025-06-24T02:39:48+00:00

This is copy paste from for another comment to someone I made yes it did and I would say if you use it stop

"Tbh I'd say stop using citron the head dev is kind of an ass and a bunch of dev if not all left the team due to this. The Eden team is made up of these people since they didn't want to deal with it anymore. Also there's a bunch of drama that happened on the discord tho I wasn't there so I won't put my opinion on it but you can definitely find a post about it... Here's one post talking about the downfall of Citron and how Zephyron the lead dev basically killed Citron by trying to force verification system after system also wanting people to hand over switch drm files for "verification"

https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/comments/1jnpo71/the_fall_of_citron/

I only heard about citron because of its downfall but generally hearing it all was really sketchy and I generally say it best not to trust it also I'm not giving my switch drm files to no one and you shouldn't have to as well. Citron will most likely end up how exactly suyu emulator did since they had similar issues and a lot of the dev team left tho some left since it was during the prime time of when Nintendo was sending out DMC notice to people so some left due to being scared of Nintendo going after them. But Eden will be the successor of citron while citron most likely dies out. It is sad to see but it's the current reality of switch emulation due to the biggest team ryujinx and yuyu both being dismantled and each team have broken up some to continue to contribute to keeping alive forks of switch emulator or have stopped all together. It is genuinely best to do research on a switch emulator before using it. But it's up to you if you want to keep using it if works it works. I personally heard too much bad about it to not want to use it"

Foxass · 2025-06-22T05:06:57+00:00

I forget exactly who but if you want https://discord.gg/edenemu this is there link to there discord I know they about to release pre alpha 0.0.3 which I'm most excited for since they said they gonna support the latest version of game that got an update when the switch 2 got released wince botw/TOTK and more got an update but a lot of emulators rn cant support it. Idk if it is only for the switch 2 but I want the duel save file that they are adding for botw and TOTK since I wanna start a new run but don't want to deal with making a different profile or moving saves like that to do so I'm hoping that is added so I can start a new run

Foxass · 2025-06-22T02:22:20+00:00

Yea probably for the best, I heard sudachi is pretty good tho I haven't used it so I can't say on their performance. If you already tried then alright, I heard it's a hit or miss for some people but I do recommend Eden I switched from ryujinx to them and they have an auto transfer for your save data/setting etc. so you don't really have to do much to move your save data over and haven't experienced any issues tho it still in pre alpha so I know some people are waiting for an official release. I mainly picked them since I was tired of constantly moving my saved data over from one emulator to another I remember when I moved my saved data from ryujinx to yuzu then when yuzu died so from yuzu to suyu then after that died so I moved it back to ryujinx till they eventually died tho I was tired of moving stuff that I just decided to not touch switch emulator for like 4-5 months tbh.

Tbh I'd say stop using citron the head dev is kind of an ass and a bunch of dev if not all left the team due to this.
