8 months agoThe upcoming Jellyfin Roku release has a quick method to play a random item from each of your libraries, but we don’t have random sorting so you can see the list.
Just a dude working on the Jellyfin Roku client while listening to my punk records and watching horror movies.

The upcoming Jellyfin Roku release has a quick method to play a random item from each of your libraries, but we don’t have random sorting so you can see the list.
I’ve never seen that requested before. I’ll add it to the Roku client idea list.
We’ll get it added to Roku one day 🤞
Our first priority is stability and functionality. Roku’s built-in UI components aren’t the prettiest, so if you want anything “slick” it has to be a custom element and you’ll need to custom code all the behind the scenes logic yourself. That’s a ton of work just for a UI change, so we’re focusing on functionality first.
