Here is what I do, but ofc not for live sports.
My TV does have access to my wifi but I blocked its MAC address from actually accessing the internet. I have a jellyfin server on my network that also can not access the internet. Now my tv can see the jellyfin server without any data leakage, cause they are on the same network :) maybe this helps some of you.
Where did you block the internet access? Ok the router? I've been looking to do this on some smart switches that I control from homeassistant, but I'm not sure how to block them
On the router yes. Depending on your model you should be able to see a list of connected devices somewhere and from there block internet access.
Why should the jellyfin server relay the internet connection from your tv if it isnt a router or proxy server??
It doesn't, that's the point. There is no internet access for either the TV or the server.
I think his question was why bother keeping the jellyfin server disconnected when there is no way for the jellyfin server to forward packets for the smart TV.
For the record there are other valid reasons for keeping jellyfin offline, just trying to elaborate on the op question
Yep. That was ny actual question. May I know what your reasons to keepJellyfin from accessing the internet?
It's not like Plex which does phone home.
Also like to know as so far i am intetested in pi-hole and jellyfin setup
For TV: I get it
But why for the server?
Because I don't to bother with security. Or rather: I don't have a use case for the server to have internet access.
