Stuck on a few parts regarding indexers and Jellyfin

Posted by Arisenhawk

So the first issue I am having is most shows I trying to download the request would get to Prowlarr but the indexers I have I guess couldn't find any torrents. I was using indexers that were shared on a reddit thread but I guess I need better ones if anyone can help. Second issue is I am able to access jellyfin off my laptop and my phone via browser but I was trying the jellyfin app on my roku TV and it was unable to see the server and when I tried putting in the IP manually I was being told the server can't be found. I appreciate any and all help. I am an ultra noob at all of this.

You have two separate issues here, and neither necessarily means SparkBox itself is broken. Prowlarr can receive a request while a particular indexer has no matching release or is failing its own search; the useful next detail is one example title plus that indexer’s exact status/error, with any private hostnames or tokens removed. For the Roku connection, please reply with your SparkBox version, whether the SparkBox machine is Linux, Windows/WSL, or a NAS, whether the Roku and SparkBox are on the same home network, and the address format you entered (for example, http://192.168.x.x:8096, without posting your real address). That will distinguish a Jellyfin discovery issue from a reachability issue. Please do not reset Jellyfin or rebuild the media stack yet.
