I've seen several requests to create a setting to hide the dropdown bar in #Jellyfin for #Roku.

I don't like this idea for a few reasons.

1. It permanently hides functionality
2. It permanently hides information

The dropdowns are how we let you know what filters are selected, what the search term is, etc. Permanently hiding this could be likened to hiding the URL bar in a browser. It doesn't make sense.

Instead, I've made it so the dropdowns hide after you scroll past the 1st row of items in the grid. This way, the screen context is set at the beginning so you know what you're looking at, then as you scroll it gets out of your way.

Scroll back up, and it will reappear just in time for you to access it and use the dropdown functions.

Scammers Target Roku TV & Roku Player Owners with Fake Tech Support Schemes

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://cordcuttersnews.com/scammers-target-roku-tv-roku-player-owners-with-fake-tech-support-schemes/

A feature request came in asking to allow users to enable/disable the watched check mark individually for each library.

Here's what I came up with.

A new setting button in the top left that opens the library settings menu. Currently, only 1 setting, but gives us room to expand in the future.

Roku Is Whipping Up More Baking Show Content

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://cordcuttersnews.com/roku-is-whipping-up-more-baking-show-content/

Crap! I introduced a bug in #Jellyfin for #Roku 3.0.4 - the OSD will not auto hide after a moment of inactivity.

PR opened. Looks like 3.0.5 has begun.

And so onto the next #Enshittification Dept: It really is true,#Roku TV’s are now injecting ads on top of native channel ads. Not fun. The industry would need a protocol in advance todo this. Not sure if as avoidance would mean abandoning #streaming channels and hardware altogether. Will they roll those dice ? I personally will hit eject but many of you probably need the fix or methadone equivalents. That’s on you.
In the mean time maybe just don’t buy a Roku TV (or streaming stick). Simple

The Roku Channel Surges with 84% Year-Over-Year Growth & Is The #2 App in The United States on Roku

If you're like me, you play multiple episodes in a row in #Jellyfin for #Roku and you're not always sure what the episode you've moved into is about.

So I've added a new button to the OSD that gives you the media overview text - the same content displayed on the detail screen.

Now I can read the media overview without stopping playback.

#Jellyfin for #Roku 3.0.4 is taking shape.

We have 3 remaining PRs to review and get merged.

Baring finding any large bugs, we'll cut the release after these 3 are in.

A requested feature for #Jellyfin for #Roku, displaying the time the playing video will end based on current time and seek position.

It will even keep updated if the video is paused and a minute passes

We just completed two big changes to #Jellyfin for #Roku that we've been working on over several releases.

That means they're being promoted from the secret dev menu to general release!

3.0.4 will allow you to to select an app background image, and will allow you to use the fallback font for all text in the app.

My xfinity cable tv stopped working Thursday morning. After a few calls from xfinity to troubleshoot it, it was determined to not be a technical issue, but a box issue. They said to turn it in, get a new one, plug it in and it will work. Well guess what, it doesn't. They even cancelled my tech that was coming out tomorrow.

So now I have to go through the hassle of their customer service again to get a tech scheduled. Complete bullshit.

Do people recommend Roku?
