Install Jellyfin on VidaaOS based TV (Hisense, Sharp, Toshiba.. etc)

[Jasper7777]

Hi, I just bought a Hisense TV model 55U72NQ. Already at the purchase stage I knew that Jellyfin was not available as an app within the VidaaStore so I was looking for possible solutions on how to overcome the problem and I started searching a bit arriving on the JellyFin forum.

As an ignoramus in the matter I wanted to ask the more experienced what the difference was between:
- VidaaEdge - Self-hosted
- VidaaEdge - Hosted

Thank you in Advice

The self-hosted version is more intended for developers or users who are comfortable hosting the project themselves.
If you just want to install your own Jellyfin instance on the TV, it's enough to follow the documentation for the hosted version. Use the (+) button and enter your own instance ip (http://ip-to-jellyfin), enter a link for the icon, give it a name and hit install .

Hello, have followed your guide, thanks by the way, and the app is installed on my hisense tv, so it says anyway.
The issue I am having is that the app does not appear on the TV after a switch off and on of the TV.
Retries the installation 4 times in total, each time it says the app is installed and after resetting the IP address and switch off/on the TV still no app visible.
Thought it might be a limit on the amount of apps on the app bar so removed some and tried again, same result.
Setup as follows.
Synology ds224+ DSM 7.2 installed jellyfin via syno community works fine from Chromebook but am restricted on TV when using dnla. 
Therefore have tried your guide to get the jellyfin client on TV.

Any advice help appreciated.

Thanks
