You could try out something I whipped up for this and see if it works for you: https://github.com/MattMckenzy/ToothPick

MattMckenzy OP ,

It doesn't directly integrate with Jellyfin, but it does store the media in a directory and file format that works well with it. I use it to subscribe to media playlist pages that yt-dlp supports and I get them added to Jellyfin automatically.

I was considering adding pictures when I have the chance, I'll see if I can do it later!

MattMckenzy OP ,

ToothPick is a web application that lets you easily subscribe to media playlist web pages, it'll use yt-dlp to fetch the media and download them in a directory and file format that is perfect for Jellyfin.

If you create a Jellyfin library that points to the ToothPick library and make sure you turn on file watching, you immediately get the content in Jellyfin without any intervention!

MattMckenzy OP ,

I've just added images and more descriptions on each page in the GitHub readme, should provide a nice overview now!

MattMckenzy OP ,

It's meant to periodically scan the locations for new content, so yes, newly added ones will be downloaded as well. By default it scans every 10 minutes!

As for channels, it supports any web page that yt-dlp can parse as a playlist, so more than likely whatever kind of page you're thinking of will work as well!

yt-dlp is impressively compatible.

I hadn't even realized VSCodium has it's own extension marketplace, I hadn't used it myself. Thanks for prompting me on this, I went ahead and published it there too! https://open-vsx.org/extension/ctfam/btrfs-file-history

Hopefully my namespace gets verified soon and the warning will go away.

I'm a professional and hobbyist C# .NET dev and I recently made the switch to a full Linux environment at home. I've gotten a great workflow setup with just VSCode and some extensions. I've actually found some ways to improve my workflow with VSCode vs Visual Studio and I'm glad I made the switch. The only thing I really miss is the phenomenal diagnostics and profiling I would get with a full Visual Studio install, but I'm getting used to using cli dotnet tools to replace that as well.

If you're going the VSCode route, feel free to ask me more questions on useful extensions or workflow tweaks!

MattMckenzy ,

I haven't really distributed any binaries yet, everything I work on is just FOSS at https://github.com/MattMckenzy.

However, I did look into packaging my HomeCast project in my own debian apt repository. It's still unsigned at the moment, but when I get to it I imagine I'll just use dpkg and gnupg2 however I need to.
