I’ve tried a few jellyfin plugins that are supposed to sync metadata and thumbnails from tube archivist, but it’s just not working right.
I can see some thumbnails, but then the titles are just random gibberish. Or the titles somewhat work, but no thumbnails.
Any secret I’m missing?
Both are running in docker containers on a synology nas.
Thanks for the reply. I guess I haven’t had that happen to me yet with videos I’m looking for again having gone private.
I’m also not interested in crappy, privacy-invading, ad-shoving YouTube apps, which is why I mentioned SmartTube. In case you haven’t heard of it, it’s FOSS and has AdBlock & SponsorBlock integrated. It’s designed for TV use. If Tube Archivist fits your need though, that’s great.
My wife is using Smarttube on a TV that has one of there Chromecast dongles, but our main LG TV doesn’t have that option.
I’ve been using FreeTube through Windows on a MiniPC, but it’s not an elegant solution. LOL It does work, though.
You may be able to root the LG TV and use https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos, which supports ad blocking and sponsorblock. Or you could install it with developer mode, but developer mode has a limited session time.
