Library Update
TVOS: Please develop a feature or a settings option for a automatically library refresh, because it doesn’t refresh the library
Additional context
To expand on this feature request a bit:
Once the app is launched the Apple TV library is not updated when new shows/movies are added on Jellyfin server. The app needs to be restarted (Double-tap the TV button on the remote. Then swipe up on the app to terminate) and then relaunched for new content to show.
To recreate:
- Launch Jellyfin on Apple TV. Exit Jellyfin app, launch another app. Or turn off the Apple TV (press hold middle button, Power Off)
- Using radarr etc., a new movie is added and Jellyfin server imports the movie (it's available through the web player, with all metadata)
- Turn on Apple TV, open Jellyfin
- New movies/show is not availabe
- Terminate Jellyfin app (Double-tap the TV button on the remote. Then swipe up on the app to terminate.)
- Relaunch Jellyfin, the movie is now available
Ideally the content can be lazy-loaded, so when the app is open new content shows up after a few seconds.
Personally I don't think this needs to be a setting, just something the app does in the background.
Seconded. Oddly, the library seems to refresh automatically on iOS/iPadOS, it only fails on TVOS.
This is still an issue. Any way one can help with on this one? It's making it rather annoying to use Swiftfin at the moment.
Is this issue acknowledged and on the road map to be fixed is one way or another? a "refresh library" button would already help until auto refresh is solved imo.

It isn't working for me on iPad OS. Added a new library with videos from YouTube. Jellyfin mobile has the updated library but SwiftFin not
