Install Jellyfin onto Tizan [EASY]

[Derailtor]

I found all the guides for installing Jellyfin onto Tizen were extremely out of date, and wanted to share the process I found with the community.

The process:

1. Enable developer mode and set the Developr's Host PC IP address to your PC's IP address using the official Samsung guide
   
2. Download the latest TizenBrew Device Manager for your OS from the releases page
   
3. Install / Run TizenBrew Device Manager, go into "Connect Device" page and connect to your TV using its LAN IP address.
   
4. Download the right Jellyfin package from the releases page
   
5. After connecting to your TV, go into the "Apps" page and click "Install App" button, select the package you just downloaded and then click "Install". You should see an alert showing the logs. The logs should say that the app has been installed now.
   
6. That's it! You're done!

Here is our official guide. Perhaps step number 3 is what you need to do. Setting up the Tizen certs.

Then you can try redoing Derailtor's guide.

I know that this thread is a couple weeks old now, but when you connect to the TV, does the IP need to remain static?

I have a friend who uses my Jellyfin and I'm trying to find a scenario that works on his TV other than a streaming stick or casting option. Manually adding Jellyfin to the Samsung TV sounds like the best option, but only if he will be able to connect to my server without any extra steps outside of this installation.

The TV's IP does not matter. YOUR server's IP needs to remain static or you need to acquire a domain or DDNS address (free options available) and setup auto-updating if your IP does change. Most residential ISPs rarely change your IP, but it can happen.

This is in addition to setting up port forwarding on your router at a minimum. We also recommend using a reverse proxy and acquiring certs for HTTPS (domain or DDNS address required).
