Just a dude working on the Jellyfin Roku client while listening to punk records & watching horror movies.

From the post: “This update also lays the groundwork for future CMYK and LAB image color modes.”
I just want to watch some damn videos without being someone else’s payday.
Amen!
Neat, I just figured Roku clients were just going to get just enough attention to work.
Nope. We have a team dedicated to working on the Roku client. They’re constantly working on not only bug fixes, but also improvements and new functionality.
🤘 Right on! Thanks for posting these.
Several of these have never been brought up to the devs, so this is the first time seeing anyone ask for them.
The Roku client for jellyfin is also a futureless husk of a client.
How so? What do you see as missing?
Money. The answer is money.
I’ve been rallying against clever code for years!
Sure, it makes you have less lines for your l33t code solutions, but in the real world, it sacrifices the maintainability of code that others will eventually work on.
Between a clever 1 line fix and maintainable 10 line fix, I’ll choose the 10 line every time.
That was really neat. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, that tracks.
At work someone estimated adding a section of static content to a page that uses React as 3 story points.
They were searching for components that would style the header and paragraph elements just as they wanted them, but were coming up short.
Instead I simply added it with html elements and a couple of lines of CSS.
5 minutes. Done.

Yeah, it’s kinda wild.
Roku channels are created using 2 proprietary languages, BrightScript and SceneGraph. You will never use them for anything other than creating Roku channels. 😐
You’re very welcome! I’ve since left the Roku team (I’m still on a few other teams) to work on my own client.
If you’re interested, it’s called viv and is available in the Roku channel store.
And since this is a programming community, here’s the source code: https://github.com/1hitsong/viv
I want your soul!!!
Redeemed! Thank you very much. I’m excited to check it out.
I’m interested. Sounds like a neat game.
If memory serves me, you could consider Lawnmower Man 2 the prequel to the Spy Kids series.
I suddenly feel compelled to consume product. 🧟
Tim Burton BROKE NEW GROUND!
I love around Chicago.
Be sure to use protection.
The burbs. Great movie!
