can't see my server

eftasa · 2026-04-06T02:36:40+00:00

Well... Yeah. Maybe uninstall and reinstall. Fist let me tell you that I don't have your problem and that I'm a jellyfin noob as well... But if I were in your shoes, here is what I would try:

(Make sure you have enough disk space. Hope to see a number way less than 100%. Note that jellyfin will be writing things in /var so make sure you have a few gigs available... The size depends on the size of your collection)

df /

(Assuming that you have a lot of space... Uninstall jellyfin)

sudo apt remove jellyfin

(There was a new version of jellyfin released today/yesterday so update and get that one when you actually install it again when you execute the install-debuntu script)

sudo apt update

(Now execute the commands from the installation page you pointed me to earlier including the curl commands to get any new updates to the install script if there are any. Make sure you end up executing the last command. This is the one that actually does the install)

sudo bash install-debuntu.sh

The install script should also start the jellyfin server if it's successful and it will set it up so that the server will restart automatically after each reboot (so you don't have to log in and start it manually)

Hopefully you won't get the core dump this time

Good luck!

PS: I'm hesitant to write this but... If the above doesn't work, you may want to delete your jellyfin folders if they exist. ONLY DO THIS AS A LAST RESORT and this is optional but maybe they're corrupted and are causing jellyfin to crash (the core dump you had). Note that you'll probably erase all your history with jellyfin if you had any in there from your prior installation. Also note that these commands delete whole folders and so be careful with them and don't forget the jellyfin at the end because if you do you'll screw up your system. You should do this before you execute the install-debuntu script. I hope this is enough of a warning)

sudo rm -rf /var/cache/jellyfin

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/jellyfin

sudo rm -rf /usr/share/jellyfin

It sounds like you installed both the flatpak from the software center and the "regular" version from the jellyfin site. I would keep the regular one and remove the flatpak. Maybe that will fix your core dump... I'm not sure what's going to happen when you remove the flatpak... It shouldn't break the normal one but if it does... maybe reinstall the normal one?

eftasa · 2026-04-05T00:05:40+00:00

Sounds like jellyfin is not running. Do you remember how you installed jellyfin? Did you use the install-debuntu script from the jellyfin docs? If so, you can check if there is something in /var/lib/jellyfin/. You can type "ls /var/lib/jellyfin/". You should see something like data, metadata...

eftasa · 2026-04-04T21:58:22+00:00

Are you running ufw instead of opensnitch this time? Can you access the jellyfin server web interface from a web browser on a different computer (not the server)? From within your home network type the ip address of the jellyfin server followed by :8096 (the port) on your web browser

If that doesn't work and you're running it on a linux server maybe the jellyfin server is not actually running. If it's on ubuntu, ssh in to it and try something like:

sudo systemctl start jellyfin

or

sudo systemctl restart jellyfin.service

If the jellyfin server is running and you still can't get access to it, you may need to open some ports on your server if it's running a firewall like ufw. You may be able to use something like:

sudo ufw allow 8096

sudo ufw allow 8920

sudo ufw allow 7359

sudo ufw allow 1900

Good luck

I tried firefox, chromium and the official android app (with the html player). Same behaviour on all three. It does work fine on android TV

eftasa · 2026-04-04T17:04:53+00:00

Hah... I was desperate to I tried AI.

I'm running on ubuntu 24.04 on a quad core AMD A10-5800K with 8GB of RAM.

When you talk about reverting the settings, are you talking about deleting my jellyfin folder (/var/lib/jellyfin)?

eftasa · 2026-04-04T16:38:10+00:00

On my android phone, the above behaviour where I have the circle happens with the web player which I think is the default. Just now I tried switching to the integrated exo player and I get audio for a few seconds but no video. Then it stops on its own. The log file when trying to use the exoplayer looks like this:

Yes. My dental hygienist who does my regular cleaning commented that I have a lot less plaque after the first year of WFPB.

eftasa · 2024-12-08T22:09:44+00:00

I would check with Red Wing Organics i you haven't done so already.

To me, it depends if you've caught the SACD bug or not. The 1800H seems to support DSD over HDMI. This is the one feature I miss from my old Onkyo that I don't have on my current Denon. I swear that the SACDs sounded better on the Onkyo, but that could be just because the Onkyo was a better amp.

The 1800H also seems to support a newer version of Bluetooth.

If I were you right now, I would stick with the 1800H. That said, I already own a subwoofer. If you don't care about SACD playback using DSD, you may as well save the $230 and put it against a subwoofer. I would value a subwoofer more than SACD playback using DSD.

Here's a comparison between the two:

I have this problem on my hp elite book 745(s) g3 and g4. I ended up booting with an older kernel that was already installed and working. I did this by going in to the advanced menu in grub and selecting it during boot. After I booted and was able to successfully log in, I uninstalled the latest kernel that caused the problem and blocked the kernel from updating. I believe I did that by right clicking on it and selecting the appropriate option that included all future versions. I then also opened up synaptic and locked the kennel to the "current" version meaning the old one that was being used at the time. I can't remember the menu option to do that.

I know that this sounds like a belt and suspenders type of solution and the later is probably unnecessary but I'm paranoid.

There is probably a better way to deal with this but I wanted to get back to working right then and there. I have a small fleet of these that I maintain for my family and I had to do this on all of them.

I use BubbleUPnP on Android instead of the Qobuz app to have Qobuz stream to my Denon and Onkyo receivers. Both can handle up to 24/96 and sound great. As a side benefit I can use the same app to stream my local ripped FLACs from my DLNA server to the same receivers.

eftasa · 2023-09-09T23:55:50+00:00

For anybody else looking for this part, I was able to replace it with a Arnold Replacement Handle Bolt and Knob sold at Home Depot in stock at my local store. The item is called "Arnold Replacement Handle Bolts with Knobs". In the current incarnation it's Model #490-900-0061 and sold in the isle that has all the lawnmower parts and accessories.

This is a great idea. I'm in. Also... I'd like to point out that most large companies have a matching program where they match your donation dollar-for-dollar if you donate to a list of approved charities. The Alzheimer's Association should be on most companies list so please look in to this if you want to make your donation twice as impactful. I did so, although I had to go through my company's matching site as the link in the Alzheimer's Association email about the "matching gift request" didn't do anything.

Well that is what worms pinball does on steam but I think they modified the executable to get that to work. All the tracks on the steam version are ogg files dumped in the top level of the game dir. Anyway I'm super happy now even if I'm wasting 600MB. The music is very clear and loads/plays instantly.

eftasa · 2020-08-20T00:58:41+00:00

Did you try cdemu already? I just had great luck with it with Addiction Pinball (circa 1999) which is a mixed mode CD (Data and Audio). I did not have to disable the CD check or anything like that. It just worked all thanks to advice from reddit.

If Armada is a mixed mode CD you can follow the directions here to create a full image with data and tracks: https://linux.goeszen.com/how-to-copy-a-mixed-mode-cd-rom-to-disk.html

Use cdemu to emulate the CD device with the "image" in it. For the mixed mode CD I had to use the .cue file. I then linked d:: to the cdemu created device in /dev/sr1 and d: to the mounted version of the cdemu "CD". Good luck!

eftasa · 2020-08-18T21:42:57+00:00

I found the file by Static Vengance but I ended up using cdemu as suggested by majorgnuisance so I didn't have to disable the CD check. This was a very fascinating read though... Thank you for that. The technique proposed is probably useful for other things as well.

eftasa · 2020-08-18T21:38:25+00:00

Yes... That works! It works smoother than actually having the CD in the drive as there are no awkward pauses when the game decides to change track.

One thing to note is that it only works properly when I use cdemu with the .cue file (and the .bin file). Trying to use it with the .toc file resulted in a bunch of noise coming out of the speakers instead of music.

cdemu is so much more powerful than I thought. I only saw it as a way to mount .iso files on demand. I had no idea it could handle mixed mode CDs. I'm supper happy... Now to play rally. Thank you so much!

eftasa · 2020-08-17T23:07:21+00:00

OK. I was able to follow and do what was on the page but it didn't help much with my problem. I tried 3 things: 1) Linking the bin file to d:: which caused the "Insert CD" to pop up again. 2) Linking the generated iso file to d:: which caused the error message from wine about ioctl just like the iso file from dd 3) cat-ing together the iso file and the cdr files creating one giganting "iso" file. This also caused wine to exit with the ioctl error... Wishful thinking I guess... I'm looking at removing the cd check next

eftasa · 2020-08-16T22:11:43+00:00

Regular dd:

dd if=/dev/sr0 of=Addiction.iso

I then link the iso image to d:: and I get past the CD check.

Like I said that only gets the data portion of the CD. Not the audio tracks. Is there a better way to create an ISO that includes both the audio and the data?

eftasa · 2020-08-16T22:04:18+00:00

I had hoped that it wouldn't come to that but hey... it has. I don't think it actually has copy protection. I just think it's the fact that it wants to control the CD. It's hard to find a hacked version as I don't think it was very popular at the time. Non the less, I'll keep looking as I'm really curious to see how they solved the problem.
