Jellystat is for Jellyfin what Tautuli is for Plex. reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sevlonbhoi1 · 2023-10-09 12:41 I was coming back to plex and was not able to completely move to Jellyfin because of Tautuli, that gives detailed stats about the Plex users watched videos. I recently came across [Jellystat](https://github.com/CyferShepard/Jellystat). Which has all the features I used on Tautuli. If you share your Jellyfin access with your family and friends Jellystat is a must have addition. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zachfive87 · 2023-10-09 13:02 Can you give me some insight on the >JWT_SECRET: 'my-secret-jwt-key'? Where would I find this or how to generate this key? I'd like to set this up for sure, but I run things bare metal and avoid docker. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- yakadoodle123 · 2023-10-09 13:34 >I run things bare metal and avoid docker Why? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- syfr · 2023-10-09 13:38 I don’t run Jellyfin but my guess is you get this key from jellyfin settings somewhere ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OwlsAreAirCats · 2023-10-09 13:51 Generate a secret with a password manager, it's used for token generation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- trexxeon · 2023-10-09 14:15 Is there anything for jellyfin that can make users request content? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Cr4zyPi3t · 2023-10-09 14:20 https://github.com/Fallenbagel/jellyseerr It's a fork of Overseerr, so if you're familiar with that you will be able to quickly set up Jellyseerr ---------------------------------------------------------------------- daedric · 2023-10-09 14:20 it's something defined by you... it's like a hash or pepper. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- yashaskm11 · 2023-10-09 14:20 Jellyseer ---------------------------------------------------------------------- JunglistFPV · 2023-10-09 14:21 I would say Jellyseerr. Dont have the link handy unfortunately. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ButtFartCuntessa · 2023-10-09 14:27 Nothing about docker or containers precludes bare metal by the way. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-10-09 14:39 Why would you care what other people watch on your jellyfin server? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-10-09 14:40 I could use some hash. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- YankeesIT · 2023-10-09 14:46 Can this be used with Emby? If not anyone know a Tautulli type app for Emby? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sevlonbhoi1 · 2023-10-09 14:49 I use [Jellyseer](https://github.com/Fallenbagel/jellyseerr). its a fork of overseer and works great. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thornygravy · 2023-10-09 14:52 \+1 for jellystat super fun ---------------------------------------------------------------------- clintkev251 · 2023-10-09 14:53 Tons of reasons. Tracking watches to ensure that nobody is sharing their account, gathering statistics on what media is being viewed so that media which is never watched can be pruned, checking in on streams to make sure that transcoding is working properly, and people are direct playing when possible, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-10-09 15:01 Sounds like a lot of work. I figure if people don't want to watch the stuff I got on my server, they can make their own. Wouldn't be giving the password to people who would share it out either. Thanks for the response! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PaintDrinkingPete · 2023-10-09 15:08 usually, unless there's specific guidance on length or size, I'll just generate a random UUID to use for these: uuidgen -r ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PaintDrinkingPete · 2023-10-09 15:11 To be pedantic, “docker” is not virtualization (at least not when running on Linux), it’s just a layer of isolation…so you can run bare metal and still utilize docker. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Conscious-Fault-8800 · 2023-10-09 15:39 Cool, didnt know this one. Will try it out! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- clintkev251 · 2023-10-09 15:42 Not really, most of that is scripted and either automatically takes action or sends me a notification when somethings up. The only thing that I do manually is pruning the library from time to time, and that's made pretty easy since I have long term statistics for the library as a whole, so I can just filter down to a certain range and sort by watches ---------------------------------------------------------------------- JanBurianKaczan · 2023-10-09 15:45 i had weird issues with jellystat, once on reboot it started maniacally ripping at jellyfin maxing out two CPU threads.... playback reporting plugin seems fine for now. Jellystat is waaaaaaay behind tautulli in all aspects, unfortunately unusable for me in it's current state ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sevlonbhoi1 · 2023-10-09 15:49 not sure why you faced the issue but I have been using it for a month now with 0 problems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fluffer_Wuffer · 2023-10-09 16:21 Billing - if they're paying monthly, they fair usage policy applies. (Joke... in regards.to Plex's latest antics) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jerwong · 2023-10-09 17:02 Bummer, I was hoping to try this out but there's no ARM build for the docker release. My Jellyfin normally runs on a Raspberry Pi. The closest I have to reporting is with the Reports plugin on Jellyfin. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Gaming09 · 2023-10-09 17:22 Wish it didn't require a diff DB for the unraid docker ---------------------------------------------------------------------- silver_for_blood · 2023-10-09 17:31 Wouldn't that be Embystat? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OneTime_AtBandCamp · 2023-10-09 17:35 I tried to make this work on unraid about a year ago and couldn't. Probably just me doing something dumb. Did anyone else have issues? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Lewisw-j · 2023-10-09 17:59 I had issues getting it going because I didn't read the manual but taking a step back then actually reading what it wanted, sorted within 20 mins, got it working and have no issues for the last six months. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vijaykes · 2023-10-09 18:10 Just curious, how many people does your instance cater to? Do you know all/most of them? Sorry if that's too intrusive... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MikeAnth · 2023-10-09 18:19 From a quick look at the project, you could easily build that image yourself. Just clone the repo on a Pi (or another device with arm architecture) and run the docker build command. I **think** that should be enough. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Javi_DR1 · 2023-10-09 18:28 Does it work on windows? Is there a way? I haven't found anything, but maybe I'm not looking right ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jfromeo · 2023-10-09 18:34 Nice. But I wish it had an arm64 build for the RPi. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- clintkev251 · 2023-10-09 18:41 I have about 20 users, they're all family/friends/coworkers of myself or my wife ---------------------------------------------------------------------- linuxturtle · 2023-10-09 18:45 I installed it, but other than a different UI, what does jellystat give you that the playback reporting plugin doesn't? Looks to me like it just retrieves part of the info from that plugin, and presents it in a different way. Also, the UI doesn't seem to work with a reverse proxy :/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selene20 · 2023-10-09 18:54 And for invites for both jellyfin and plex check out wizarr. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- redlandmover · 2023-10-09 19:30 you're looking for embystat (for which jellystat is a fork) https://github.com/mregni/EmbyStat ---------------------------------------------------------------------- YankeesIT · 2023-10-09 19:33 Thank you! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- FunkMunki · 2023-10-09 19:47 You just go to the IP through the browser. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Javi_DR1 · 2023-10-09 20:06 No, I mean installing it on windows, my media server is on windows 11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Offbeatalchemy · 2023-10-09 20:07 Seems to be windows compatible. https://github.com/Fallenbagel/jellyseerr#launching-jellyseerr- manually ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Javi_DR1 · 2023-10-09 20:10 Then I seem to be stupid, how I didn't see that before? lol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- henry_tennenbaum · 2023-10-09 21:15 Can't get to run with docker-compose thanks to authentification issues, even when `JWT_SECRET` and `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` are both set to `test`. Weird. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- epsiblivion · 2023-10-09 21:36 Dockerfile is in the repo. you could build it yourself ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hoof-Art · 2023-10-09 21:50 Also [OMBI](https://github.com/Ombi-app/Ombi). It has its own mobile app as well with notifications. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- FunkMunki · 2023-10-09 22:11 My bad, I misunderstood what you meant. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- RandomGuyThatsCool · 2023-10-09 22:30 while we're on the topic. does anyone have a replacement for plex meta manager for jellyfin? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TooGoood · 2023-10-09 22:30 Why go through all the trouble Jellyfin already has a plug-in you can install with with in, it is called Playback Reporting. that does the same exact thing and its a lot lighter on server resources. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vijaykes · 2023-10-09 22:46 That's really cool! Hope you are also training the children-users in the fine art of self hosting 😊 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jerwong · 2023-10-09 23:12 Hmm, thanks for the suggestion. I didn't even think of doing that. I just finished building the image (took about 15 minutes on a RPi 4 8 GB) and it seems to work so far. Just need to read through documentation now and configure it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Micex · 2023-10-10 00:02 You can also use Requestrr together with jellyseerr for all your requesting needs https://github.com/darkalfx/requestrr ---------------------------------------------------------------------- lannistersstark · 2023-10-10 00:59 Jellyseerr handles notifications natively via Chrome. You can also just have other notification ways like email/ntfy/webhooks etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- epsiblivion · 2023-10-10 01:10 yeah no go for reverse proxy. looks like only usable in lan then. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PogMoThoin22 · 2023-10-10 06:37 Jellystat gives you a GUI, images and graphs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TooGoood · 2023-10-10 06:44 so does the app, granted not as pretty, but if all you are looking for is stats the app gives you graphs for playback time per user, play time or per file / users. graphs for usage per day/hour/week/sessions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- agent-squirrel · 2023-10-10 07:34 Notifiarr and a Discord server are a perfect combo. My family has a Discord server and they can request content through Jellyseerr. When it's available it get's posted to the Discord requests channel. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- agent-squirrel · 2023-10-10 07:34 This is great! I use Notifiarr at the moment but the requesting is cumbersome. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- grtgbln · 2023-10-10 07:36 Maybe I'll make a port of Tauticord for Jellyfin once this matures. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- agent-squirrel · 2023-10-10 07:36 There is a bug open for it by the looks of things. Develop branch works supposedly? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mayamayagirl · 2023-10-10 16:25 Why is this downvoted, what is up with this subreddit ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zachfive87 · 2023-10-10 16:50 I guess I struck a nerve when I said I prefer not to use docker. Didn't realize we all had to be in love with containerization and passing through hardware, non persistent data, mounting storage, and permission/user issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jerwong · 2023-10-10 17:56 I did the following: git clone onto my raspberry pi cd into the repo docker build -t jellystat . run the docker-compose up command The build portion took about 15 minutes on my Pi4 8GB. After running docker-compose it picked up the local image and created a container. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jfromeo · 2023-10-10 18:05 Thank you! ​ I will give it a shot. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- schizovivek · 2023-10-11 00:34 > Project is in sleep mode!!! Looks like the project is no longer active. has anyone tried to see if jellystat would work with Emby? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- redlandmover · 2023-10-11 00:56 It's still getting commits strangely. There was one today. Shrug. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- schizovivek · 2023-10-11 13:42 the commit yesterday was when the dev put that sleep mode part in :-D https://github.com/mregni/EmbyStat/pull/1933/files I'll still check it out but I recollect reading somewhere that there were issues with embystat and most probably jellystat won't work with emby. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- lannistersstark · 2023-10-12 05:46 Keeps showing >Error: Unable to connect to Jellystat Backend after every setting change. Seems like alpha of alpha software. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sureshs0503 · 2023-10-23 10:46 >ARM could you share that link if you have uploaded on github? I'm also running jellyfin on RPI and facing same issues ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jerwong · 2023-10-23 15:43 I just did the following: ssh into the raspberry pi `git clone` [`https://github.com/CyferShepard/Jellystat.git`](https:// github.com/CyferShepard/Jellystat.git) `cd Jellystat` `docker build -t jellystat .` It took my RPi 4 8 GB about 15 minutes to do this. Verify that the build finished correctly: `docker images` You should see a new jellystat image available Make any appropriate changes to the docker-compose.yml file. I changed the default postgres password and secret. I also commented out the bottom "logging" section because I was getting errors that might have been related to my version of docker. Now try to bring up the container. `docker-compose up -d` It took a few minutes but everything came up eventually. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sureshs0503 · 2023-10-23 20:10 Thanks for your reply, it worked but unfortunately I get rate limited from GitHub api when I run jellystat container. Need to check their documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jerwong · 2023-10-23 21:38 GitHub's API shoudn't be involved if you're running this on your RPi. The only time you connect to GitHub is just to clone the repo which should be very brief. If that doesn't work, you can just download the file and extract it locally. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sureshs0503 · 2023-10-24 07:20 I'll give it a shot, Thanks!!
