I'm not sure if this is where I am supposed to post this so please move to the correct location if needed.
I have created a Linux application to prevent the Jellyfin server from suspending whilst a user is streaming a video.
Suspend the server after streaming depending on the inactivity timeout value and user inputs.
https://github.com/Kwakers01/Jellyfin-Inhibit-Sleep
Please feel free to test, add code (e.g. ssh/vnc detection), I have puts lots of comments in the code, configured logging and testing (on/off). I will try to look at ssh and vnc when I get my server built (tested on laptop).
Feel free to raise issues if needed, I may not be able to fix them but I will have a go and try to help, other users may try to help too.
I hope people find this useful.
