JellyWatch: Jellyfin Player

О приложении JellyWatch: Jellyfin Player

JellyWatch Player turns your Jellyfin or Emby server into a real home cinema on Android TV, Google TV and Fire TV — and a polished streaming app on your Android phone and tablet.

JELLYFIN AND EMBY — ONE APP FOR EVERY SCREEN

Connect to a Jellyfin or Emby server. The server type is detected automatically — just sign in as usual. Emby accounts get full access to libraries, Continue Watching, Live TV and recording timers. Jellyfin-exclusive features (Skip Intro, Trickplay, SyncPlay, remote subtitles, theme songs) are gracefully hidden on Emby.

KIDS PROFILE

Create a dedicated Kids profile with a colorful home screen, poster cards, hero banner and Fredoka rounded font. Choose from three color themes. A parental PIN locks all exits from Kids mode. Content filtering is handled by your Jellyfin server user policy.

LINKED PROFILES — MULTIPLE SERVERS, ONE HOME SCREEN

Link accounts from different Jellyfin servers. Continue Watching, Next Up and Recently Added merge into one unified home screen. Each profile keeps its own watch history and preferences.

HOME ASSISTANT CINEMA MODE

Connect your Home Assistant instance to automate your smart home. Lights dim on Play, come back on Pause. One script per event: play, pause, stop. Fully local — no cloud required.

THE BEST PLAYER FOR EVERY SCREEN

4K, HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, TrueHD Atmos and DTS:X passthrough. ExoPlayer with FFmpeg audio decode. Trickplay previews, auto intro/credits skip, playback speed 0.5x–2x, Audio Night Mode, live quality switching. Works on Android TV, Google TV, Fire TV, and Android phones and tablets.

FIND THE RIGHT SUBTITLE IN SECONDS

Search and download subtitles during playback via OpenSubtitles and other providers on your Jellyfin server. Subtitles save permanently for everyone.

READ YOUR EBOOK LIBRARY

Browse your Jellyfin book library and read EPUB ebooks on any screen. Full-screen reader with dark, light and sepia themes, adjustable font size and D-pad / touch page turning.

PLAY YOUR MUSIC LIBRARY

Browse albums, artists, genres and playlists. Music keeps playing in the background when you navigate away — a mini-player lets you browse while audio continues uninterrupted. A media foreground service keeps the session alive so the system never kills the audio. 10-band equalizer with real-time presets. FLAC 5.1/7.1 surround delivered as Dolby Digital Plus over HDMI ARC/eARC automatically. Stats for Nerds overlay shows codec, channels and delivery mode.

WATCH TOGETHER WITH SYNCPLAY

Create or join a group and watch in perfect sync. Playback pauses when someone buffers and resumes when everyone is ready.

QUICK LOGIN AND MULTI-ACCOUNT

Sign in with a code on your phone — no keyboard. Switch between profiles in two clicks.

ADMIN DASHBOARD

Monitor active streams, library stats and tasks. Start library scans from your couch or phone.

PICTURE IN PICTURE

Press Home during playback and the video continues in a floating window.

ANDROID AUTO — YOUR MUSIC IN THE CAR

Connect your phone to Android Auto and JellyWatch Player appears in the media app list. Browse albums, artists, genres, playlists and audiobooks. Voice search, Shuffle All, Instant Mix (radio), favorites at root level. HD artwork, rich metadata, playback position sync. Works with Jellyfin and Emby. Google Play version only.

BUILT FOR EVERY SCREEN

Smooth animations, high-resolution artwork, responsive D-pad and touch navigation. Cinematic screensaver protects OLED displays. Seerr integration for movie and series requests. Feature Board for community-driven development.
