Play random episode - Marcel19 - 2024-03-11
Is it possible to work with Jellyfin with "random" episode of a serie.
My wife and I watch quite a few different series.
And sometimes we can't decide which series to watch that night. Is it possible with Jellyfin to have some kind of button that randomly plays the next episode of a random series?
So let's say we have the following series:
Young Sheldon S05E03 we watched last
Chicago Fire S04E05 we have seen last
Chicago PD S03E08 we saw last
That one night we just press 1 button in Jellyfin and then Chicago Fire S04E06 plays. And when that is over, that we want to randomly watch another episode of a series and then Young Sheldon S05E04 plays.
So far with plex I've also used something like that, but it literally randomly does an episode of a random series. So then suddenly I get to see Chicago Firie S02E05 while yesterday we had seen S04E05 last. Or it picks an episode in the future.

Which client?
On Roku, you can highlight your TV library and simply press play. It'll queue up a shuffled selection of episodes from the library.
