How to watch, listen, and read with Jellyfin
Jellyfin is an app that looks and works like Netflix, Prime, Disney+, Spotify, Audible, or other streaming apps. Our library is free and contains content you will not find on platforms. We can add anything to the library, and no company or government can remove it. Own your media instead of paying a subscription every month for the rest of your life.
You can watch all the movies, listen to audiobooks and music, view pictures, and read any books at https://ravergram.club/jellyfin or https://ravergram.club/jellyfin-vue. For the best experience on all your devices such as your TV, install the app and enter the server https://ravergram.club/jellyfin in the setup. You can quick connect (without entering password) to Jellyfin on your TV if you have the mobile app installed.
Your account credentials are the same as your main Ravergram account that you use to log into the portal, Nextcloud, and others. Ask me if you have any trouble logging in since I have not created a Jellyfin account for everybody.
Other ways to consume the media
Jellyfin is an all purpose player. Nextcloud also allows you to directly consume most of the media. However, I find some apps to be better suited for the type of content. From your Nextcloud app on any device, you can sync the content to your device and view it in another app. I am most familiar with Linux and Android compatible apps. Here is a little demo. Here are recommendations:
Android
- Audiobooks are organized, heard, and tracked with Voice.
- Videos and music play on VLC player.
- Music plays with Auxio.
- Ebooks can be read with Librera. You can listen to these ebooks with SherpaTTS installed.
If you can recommend the best IOS apps, please send them to me.
How to add content with Nextcloud
Media on Nextcloud can be viewed and streamed directly from Nextcloud, but viewing is not as full featured as Jellyfin.
If you want to upload media to be viewed in Jellyfin, move/upload/copy it to the right folder in mediashare. Soon after uploading to this folder in Nextcloud, it should be visible in Jellyfin app.
Please don't upload junk. Try to clean up the naming and metadata tags before uploading. Jellyfin will automatically look up metadata and images for media and allow you to change metadata. To delete files, ask me to do so.
If you are looking for something and don't know how to find it, ask me over Talk or any channel. I can probably find it and show you how to do so. Some methods are documented here.
What you will find here
The library contains all kinds of media that different people have added. Some is censored on platforms controlled by those who wish to stay in power over us. I have added content I hope to view someday. I want to be challenged and look at views I don't agree with. If you want my take on any of it, please chat me up to discuss whatever I know about.
π Please don't abuse
These services are reserved for my friends and family.

If you want to share anything in the library with somebody else, create a share link from Nextcloud files. You can set expiration date, password, and revoke the shares. Anybody can stream or download from Nextcloud with a link you create.
-
Do not share your account credentials with anyone. Ask me to create an account for someone else.
- Do not upload media that you would not share with adult friends and family.
