I bought a Roku Stick the other day to take with me on trips so I can watch my videos in the hotel room. I hooked it up and installed the jellyfin app and started watching a TV show. After about a minute playback stopped and I was returned to the home screen of the Jellyfin app but the only thing that was listed were my libraries. I exited and re-entered the jellyfin app and started watching the same episode. The same thing happened.

I only tried the one video, I’ll try some others and see what happens.

[Edit] I tried a couple of other videos and they seem to be fine, must be something particular with that one video

We had a similar report the other day and the root cause had to do with some of the subtitle code.

For those reports, the changes in the soon to come 2.0.1 release fixed it.

Okay my issue could be related, the video that had issues does have two subtitle tracks:

2.0.1 has been released. Does the problem video play for you now?

I started watching episode 6 of extraordinary birder and playback stopped about a minute and a half in.

Someone on the forum had a similar issue and said this fixed worked. Might be worth a shot: …jellyfin.org/t-solved-roku-app-mysteriously-skip…
