Building for Windows

Please install:

  • cmake - cmake-3.20.0-windows-x86_64.msi
    • Add cmake to the path.
  • ninja
    • Place this in the build directory.
  • QT
    • This package is huge. You also need to make a QT account...
    • Check "MSVC 2019 64-bit" and "Qt WebEngine" under QT 5.15.2.
  • VS2019 Build Tools
    • Again this will use a lot of disk space. The installer is small though.
  • libmpv1
    • Place the contents in the build directory, in a subfolder called mpv.
    • Move the contents of the include folder to an mpv folder inside the include folder.
    • Move the mpv-1.dll to mpv.dll.
  • WIX

You need to run these commands in git bash.

git clone https://github.com/iwalton3/jellyfin-media-player
cd jellyfin-media-player
./download_webclient.sh
cd build

Open the "x86_x64 Cross Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019". cd to the build directory. Run:

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.11\bin
cmake -GNinja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=output -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=ninja.exe -DQTROOT=C:/Qt/5.15.2/msvc2019_64 -DMPV_INCLUDE_DIR=mpv/include -DMPV_LIBRARY=mpv/mpv.dll -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=output ..
lib /def:mpv\mpv.def /out:mpv\mpv.dll.lib /MACHINE:X64
ninja
ninja windows_package

Building for MacOS

Install QT 5.15.2, remember to check Qt WebEngine.

Then run the following commands (replace with your QT installation location):

brew install mpv ninja
./download_webclient.sh
cd build
cmake -GNinja -DQTROOT=<QT_DIR> -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=output ..
ninja install

To create redistributable bundle, some library paths need to be fixed. At the project root directory, run:

python3 ./scripts/fix-install-names.py ./build/output/Jellyfin\ Media\ Player.app

Log File Location

  • Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\JellyfinMediaPlayer\logs
  • Linux: ~/.local/share/jellyfinmediaplayer/logs/
  • Linux (Flatpak): ~/.var/app/com.github.iwalton3.jellyfin-media-player/data/jellyfinmediaplayer/logs/
  • macOS: ~/Library/Logs/Jellyfin Media Player/

Config File Location

The main configuration file is called jellyfinmediaplayer.conf. You can also add a mpv.conf to configure MPV directly.

  • Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\JellyfinMediaPlayer\
  • Linux: ~/.local/share/jellyfinmediaplayer/
  • Linux (Flatpak): ~/.var/app/com.github.iwalton3.jellyfin-media-player/data/jellyfinmediaplayer/
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Jellyfin Media Player/

Web Debugger

To get browser devtools, use remote debugging.

  • Run the application with the command argument --remote-debugging-port=9222.
  • Open Chromium or Google Chrome.
  • Navigate to chrome://inspect/#devices.
  • You can now access the developer tools.

If you have problems:

  • Make sure "Discover Network Targets" is checked.
  • Make sure localhost:9222 is in the list under "Configure...".
  • Make sure --remote-debugging-port=9222 is specified correctly.
