Why jump from 10.11.11 directly to 12.0? -> Blog Post

You can find more details about and discuss this release on the official forums.

As always, please ensure you stop your Jellyfin server and take a full backup of your metadata/configs before upgrading!

Direct upgrades from 10.10.7 and 10.11.x to 12.0 are supported; intermediate upgrades are not required. Users running releases older than 10.10.7 are strongly encouraged to upgrade to 10.10.7 before migrating to 12.0.

Installed repository plugins (anything not built-in) should also be removed before migrating. Plugins will likely need time to adapt to the new database changes, so re-adding them afterward is the safest approach for testing.

Official plugins compatible with Jellyfin are available through the stable plugin repository. If you have changed to the unstable plugin repository please change it back.

Go to Dashboard -> Plugins -> Manage Repositories
Update the Plugin Repository URL to: https://repo.jellyfin.org/files/plugin/manifest.json

After migrating please perform the following steps.

Perform a full library scan to restore alternative versions
Run the "Optimize database" scheduled task

Thats a client config issue not a server issue.

Go to settings > client settings, enable the background audio with the checkbox:

That definitely does not fix the issue. Not sure if it is just certain devices or Android versions or whatever that have that issue, but having that checked makes no difference for me in recent months. Even with that setting enabled, if I start playing a video then switch to another app, the audio keeps playing for three seconds or so and then just cuts out. The video keeps playing in the background, but no audio.

Maybe you can try to enable the "run in the background" battery saving option?

[–] SatyrSack@quokk.au 6 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

It's set to "Unrestricted":

Besides, like I say, the video does keep playing in the background, it is just the audio that cuts out after a few seconds.

Did you disable the battery saver setting? On some android flavours it can ignore the battery/background usage

[–] Havatra@lemmy.zip 3 points 21 hours ago

How about battery saving settings? Or data saver? (I constantly use battery saver, and it's pretty aggressive with restricting processes)

You can try streamyfin which is enabled by default, but what's likely happening is that your phone is disabling it as a background app. I'd check your phone settings for power management/pausing background apps. I can tell you that audio only playback with the screen off and as a background app works just fine with JF (official client), I was just using it that way earlier today.
