Same here…

Underpowered server is what I suspect. It’s taking too long to extract subtitles that it times out. Subsequent requests will work as the result is cached once it eventually finishes.

My workaround was to use external subtitles to remove the need to extract. If you’re using the *arrs checkout bazarr.

It’s not a plugin. It’s a separate companion application.

Docker is the recommended route https://hub.docker.com/r/fallenbagel/jellyseerr

This might be worth a look

Personally, intro-skipper is my absolute must-have.

Also, media cleaner is good for those who watch a lot of content but then don’t want to keep it. It’s controversial as most users want to keep content. But you can configure to keep your favourites. I do this for films, but then tv shows I watch once and let it clean up after me as I don’t care to see it again. Combined with the *arrs for fetching content, it means I don’t need to ever manage tv shows.

I use an old crappy asustor nas. With a dozen docker containers all fighting over 2Gb ddr3 ram. Jellyfin, without transcoding, as one of those docker containers works great.

Subtitles, tracking progress, syncing from trakt, pulling in new shows, movies etc all automatically.

The only issues I’ve had are from either trying to stream some high BitRate 4k films on my shitty network, or media that requires transcoding that my poor overworked nas can’t handle.

Issues are generally hardware, config or media related. Jellyfin isn’t perfect, but it’s far, far better than you give it credit for.
