Just an FYI from the Jellyfin side.

i can definitely confirm Ombi works fine with Jellyfin when configured as Emby. It's my primary interface and so far it's worked wonderfully.

That said, this may change in the future as we do have plans to rewrite the API. I'll be sure to report on the status and perhaps try to send some resources your way when we do, just to make sure we can retain compatibility.

P.S. I love Ombi, keep up the awesome work!

Does this not work with the Emby option in Ombi?

It probably does, but there should be a new option for Jellyfin.

is jellyfin a fully open source fork of emby?

Yes that’s correct.

id be inteterested to see if it works just using the emby config.

did a quick test and Ombi _does_ work with jellyfin. You can configure the media server portion and scan the library seemingly fine. but when you try to click a "View on Emby" link from ombi it pulls up the app.emby.media/#1/itemdetails.html?id= which doesn't exist for jellyfin at this location. So something will need to be added to make these links resolve to something else.

IE: localhost:8096/web/index.html#!/itemdetails.html?id=

The ability to customize the URL has been a feature request for a while now. I would love to see Jellyfin support generally, as well.

Completed that feature request in develop.

For now I don't think we need a difference between Jellyfin vs Emby. But if any of the interfaces change then we will need to.

Just tried this out but couldn't get it to work... seems like there is a potential discrepancy regarding a trailing slash in the domain string here and here?

I tried entering my domain both ways (i.e. https://emby.example.com and https://emby.example.com/) but the "View on Emby" buttons in Ombi and the newsletter thumbnails still link to app.emby.media.

What errors are you seeing

Boy, this one took me a while to figure out:

No errors, but the Externally Facing Hostname value is only being applied to new content. Content that became available before I set my domain name still has the View on Emby buttons and newsletter thumbnails linking to app.emby.media, while content that became available after I set my domain name has the correct link (e.g., https://emby.example.com/#!/itemdetails.html?id=160640)

doesnt work for me.
Ombi adds /#!/itemdetails.html?id=xxxx to the base url, but should add #!/details?id=xxxx instead

/edit: whoops, I mean to externally facing hostname
