Trailer button disappeared in Android TV version - rraesr - 2023-10-16
Hey everyone,
I've been having an issue with the trailer button on the Android TV version of Jellyfin. It used to work perfectly until about a month ago, but now the button has randomly disappeared. Interestingly, the button is still visible on the web client.
Has anyone else encountered a similar problem? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Did you upgrade from 10.8.10 to .11? I'm wondering if that broke the plugin for non-web wrapper clients.

You are right, I forgot to post the versions of the app I am running:
- Jellyfin 10.8.11
- Android Tv 0.15.12

I was planning a downgrade back to .10 myself. Playlists are broken in 3rd party apps. Important for me as a Finamp user.
Stop jellyfin, backup your config and database, try downgrading back to .10? I don't know if that will, in fact, fix your problem. But its worth a try.
Did I mention that you should backup your config and database? .11 didn't involve any DB schema changes, so it shouldn't be a problem. But its always better to be safe than sorry.

Thanks, I'll try and post if that fixes the issue!

I downgraded to version .10 but unfortunately, it did not solve the issue with the trailer button. Would it be more appropriate to raise this question in the GitHub issues section of https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-androidtv?

Was any fix found for this one? Experiencing the same myself but only on chromecast, Web browsers all fine also

This issue seemed to have resolved at some point, since it worked for me for most of last year, well after this thread was started.
Unfortunately it has returned for me.
In a recent upgrade for Android TV, I am now missing the trailer button again.
Environment:
Jellyfin server 10.10.6, via docker.
Nvidia Shield Pro running LineageOS 22.1 (Android 15)
Jellyfin for Android TV Version 10.18.6 (issue was also in 10.18.5)
There are no local trailers on my server
In prior builds, the trailer button appeared so long as I had one of several 3rd party Youtube clients installed, including Newpipe, Smarttube and PipePipe.
On clicking on the trailer button for the first time, I would be prompted to select which app I wanted to view the trailer with and could do so "just once" or "always"
Now, unless I install the native youtube client, (I do not run any google apps), I do not see the button and must exit the app and manually search for the trailer in one of the aforementioned apps.
It may seem like a minor issue in the grand scheme of things, but this really detracts from the user experience.
