Roku Playlists

[JCJelly]

Sorry for the duplicate question.  I asked this on the main support channel but haven't gotten any response, so I thought I'd try here.

I've just set up a Jellyfin server and so far it's great.  The only issue/concern I have regards accessing playlists via the Roku app: I can't seem to figure out how to find the playlists and use them.

I've searched for an answer, and I've seen some posts about re-ordering shuffled songs on the Roku app, but nothing about missing playlist functionality.

Does the Roku app have playlist functionality, and if so, how do I access it?

Server:
Version: 10.8.12
Operating System: Linux
Architecture: Arm64

Roku App:
Version: 1.6.6  (edit: I verified that it is version 1.6.6)

Thanks,

Are you using a different user for your Roku client?

It sounds like you are running into a server bug regarding playlists and permissions. Like @TheDreadPirate said, if you create the playlist with the same user that you are using on your roku, it should work.

It works! Thanks so much. You all rock!!

The playlists are created by MusicBee and picked up by Jellyfin. I just have to sign in as the administrator account, which isn't the best, but since it's on a private network it shouldn't be a big deal.

Jellyfin is great. I can get rid of the crummy DLNA player on Roku and have a real player interface. Thank you all so much for your work!
