2000%.

I used to have a list (I might still) of all of the features I was looking for in Jellyfin: if they had all of them I would migrate over. Spoiler Alert: Jellyfin doesn’t have 8/10ths of the features.

I think I’m just going to start blocking the rabid Jellyfin fans and save myself the trouble.

You would have saved yourself the headache if you responded to my question with “…what you specifically want is not possible.”

“…all you gotta do set it up on the DNS level. Find out the IP needed to connect to your VPN via DNS, then change your TV’s DNS servers to that IP in its internet connection settings.”

To anyone reading this, this is not how a VPN works. A VPN (generally) requires a piece of software that gets installed on a client device and securely connects your device to a VPN server. Just pointing DNS entries to the IP address you use to connect to a VPN won’t actually connect you to the VPN.

If that worked, why would the major VPN providers have software based clients?

I’m not asking how to do it without a VPN, I’m asking how to do it WITH a VPN.

Not sure what’s hard to understand.

I asked for a guide on how to setup a VPN on my LG TV.

Please specifically point out where in your long repo se you provided a guide on how to run a VPN on my LG TV.

If you’re cleaning your own teeth, you’re missing several.

None of your business, insensitive clod.

Ok, so you didn’t walk someone through it; you shipped them something preconfigured.

That’s not going to scale as I share out my server.

Because it’s android.

Stop being so dam lazy and do all the things you pay someone else to do.

Mow the lawn. Fix the plumbing. Run new electrical. Neuter the cat. Clean your teeth. Do your taxes. Properly segment your network into several VLANs so that your IoT devices can’t talk to your internal network.

Where do I find Wireguard for my LG TV?

You can’t expect my relatives living 100+ miles away to start monkeying around with their router. That be like asking you to set the spark plug timing correctly using a timing gun.

How do I load and configure Tailscale on my TCL Roku TV?

This is an answer im looking for.

Thanks.

One of my pet peeves is when people immediately jump to whatever their fanboy program of choice is regardless of if it’s actually the right program to run in the situation given.

Out of curiosity, what TV and what OS?

Great; how do I get my Mother to do that over the phone?

Right.

Even though I could do those things, I just want something that works.

Plex (or even Emby) fits that request.

Plus they both have an AppleTV app for fee that doesn’t suck.

So, like every other jellyfin fanboy, no real actual answer.
