Jellyfin 10.3.0 → 10.4.0

STOP: This release is currently pulled due to #1445 - if you use the LDAP authentication plugin, do not upgrade.

NOTE: This release fixes #1445 in a way that no workarounds are required. If an external auth provider fails or is removed, users who were entirely dependent on that auth provider now fail-closed (preventing login and logging an error) rather than fail-open. The password of the default auth provider for that user can still be reset in this case allowing access to the accounts in the failed state, if needed, by going through the usual password reset process and setting a password for the default auth provider. Also note that when in the failed state, saving a user config will reenable the default auth provider for the user, since this is selected by default; if doing this, ensure you set a password for the user immediately, otherwise do not attempt to modify users in this state via the admin dashboard before correcting the underlying issue; future releases may improve how this is handled visually on the user configuration page, but in this release it is implicit.

• Fixes the coexistence of Emby and Jellyfin apps on Android via jellyfin-web. All existing Jellyfin sessions will be ended and relogin will be required.

Important Release Notes

• [All] As always, ensure you back up your Jellyfin data and configuration directories, with Jellyfin stopped, before upgrading. This is very important in case you want to roll back to a previous stable release.
• [All] Some plugins have updated versions to work with 10.4.0; if any installed plugins are missing after upgrading, re-install them from the catalog.
• [All] FanArt support has been moved to a plugin.
• [Kodi Integration] Due to recent updates, if syncing fails, you may need to kick off a manual full sync, after which normal syncs will work again.
• [Windows] For 10.4.0, the default Windows data directory has moved from %AppDataLocal%\Jellyfin to %ProgramData%\Jellyfin\Server. Move/copy your data to this new location before upgrading.
• [Windows] Ensure you remove any previously-installed zip-based installs, or you may get duplicate Windows Service entries.
• [Windows] Startup shortcuts are not present for non-service installs and must be created manually.
• [Windows] Service installs require correct permissions; keep this in mind if you get permission errors accessing media or configurations.
• [Windows] Service installs won't have access to network shares unless your computer is in an Active Directory domain by default; you must change the service login to a named account manually and provide credentials to any network shares for this to work, or do not install Jellyfin as a service.
• [Windows] The installer also does not take care of any firewall rules for you, make sure to add the appropiate Windows Firewall rules.
