Jellyfin to Awtrix NG (Node-RED Flow)

This simple Node-RED flow connects to your Jellyfin API and displays what is currently playing (with a smooth progress bar) on your Awtrix NG matrix.

How to use:

  1. Import the JSON flow into your Node-RED.
  2. Double-click the HTTP Request node and update the URL with your details:
  • Replace JELLYFIN_IP with your Jellyfin server IP.
  • Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key generated in Jellyfin (Dashboard -> Advanced -> API Keys).
  1. Double-click the MQTT Out node and select your own MQTT Broker.
  • Note: Make sure the topic matches your Awtrix prefix (default is awtrix-ng/cmd/apps/pushed/Jellyfin).
  1. Click Deploy and you're good to go!
