I'm planning on spinning up a Jellyfin server, and this is really concerning. Please keep this post updated if you find a solution.
Is there a particular reason this is concerning? I'm all ears and can pass along any feedback.
First of all, thank you so much for being part of Jellyfin, I paid the Plex Pass lifetime thing a few years ago, and Plex has turned into the exact opposite of what I want. I'm going all-in into Jellyfin.
But regarding music:
I listen to music every day on my car, if I can't use Jellyfin with Android auto, I'll have to chose another app for the job. I've found it to be really convenient and safer.
Edit: If there was an equally convenient FOSS alternative to Android Auto I would switch to it in a heartbeat.
OP here. I am only using Jellyfin only for videos, and for that, Fermata is actually a pretty good app to let you access Jellyfin via Android Auto to watch videos.
I am pretty sure Jellyfin AA works as it should (for audio only, which I did not know about) otherwise there would have been lots of posts on Reddit prior to the exodus...
