Explain how you connect your in-laws roku to Jellyfin with tailscale.
forgot most of you here are americans, roku isn’t a thing in my country. everyone who i share to uses a pc, htpc, phone or tablet for that
Roku is also a thing in Europe.
Though I also gave up trying to set up Tailscale for people and just exposed Jellyfin (behind a reverse proxy).
Guess what I didn’t have to setup with plex? That’s right, a reverse proxy.
A VPS with a reverse proxy connected to your tailnet and a dyndns domain. It would be cheaper than Plex premium, you can use the vps for other stuff, and you have 100% certainty it will never ever show ads.
If you want to try it I think you should be able to do it With a Raspberry pi or equivalent on their network running Tailscale, use iptables to forward all inbound traffic on the Jellyfin port from that device to your Jellyfin server which is also running tailscale. Connect their Roku using the pi as the address for Jellyfin. I’ve not tried this with Jellyfin but I had something similar working with a Minecraft server
Step one: get your in-laws a cheap Apple TV from whatever site you use for used electronics. Or even a new one.
Step one: you buy it and send it to me if you’re so bent on people running Jellyfin.
