JellyfinStats for Tidbyt / Tronbyt Server

⚠️ I currently use the script via HomeAssistant with TidbytAssistant for automations. I have not yet released it in the Tidbyt Community.

This Pixlet applet displays Jellyfin statistics on a Tidbyt device. It provides a quick and visual overview of:

• ▶️ Active playback sessions
• 🎞️ Media library statistics (e.g., number of movies and shows)
• 🆕 Latest media entries per library
• 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 User profile image grid

Preview

Features

• ✅ Displays total number of movies and shows
• ✅ Animated transitions between sections
• ✅ Latest media shown per allowed library
• ✅ User avatars with profile images (up to 8)
• ✅ Configurable via Tidbyt app interface

Configuration

The following fields are available in the app settings:

Field	Description
Server Address (Required)	Your Jellyfin server URL (including protocol and port)
API Key (Required)	Your personal Jellyfin API key
Latest Media Toggle	Show the newest item from each selected library
Library Keywords	Additional comma-separated keywords to include libraries (e.g. "kids, action")
Library Exclude Keywords	Keywords to exclude libraries (e.g. "test, anime - filme")

Filtering Logic

• Libraries must match allowed keywords (predefined or user-defined).
• Libraries are excluded if their names match any blocked keywords.
• Only libraries with valid image assets are displayed.
• Seed generated from timestamp of last_activity will be used for random subsets

Display Order

1. Server logo and name
2. Library statistics (up to 2)
3. Active playback sessions
4. Latest media (if enabled)
5. User avatars (up to 8)
6. Outro with server logo and name -> disabled to safe some KB when Latest media is enabled!

Image Fallback Strategy

For library item images:

1. If the item is an episode, use the series image.
2. Otherwise, use the item’s PrimaryImageTag.
3. As a last fallback, use ParentThumbImageTag.

Limits

• GIF and Pixlet rendering are capped to 15 seconds of animation (and approx. 190KB ?).
• Maximum of 2 libraries and 8 user avatars displayed per run.
• If there are more than 2 libraries, a random subset is shown.
• If there are more than 8 users, a random subset is shown.
• User (Images) will only be shown, if the are PNG or JPEG on the server
