Homarr Jellyfin Widget

Every 10 seconds the Homarr Jellyfin Widget authenticates via a login. Is there a way to change this? It really should only need to authenticate/login once.

I am using the Jellyfin widget for Emby which has no issues, but my activity log is seemingly a mini-DDOS of authentication requests from this widget every 10 seconds lol

Solution
Hi, sadly there is not - at least yet.
Homarr is using Next.js in the backend which is running synchronously.
This means that we must do the following each time a widget is refreshing:
  • Establishing the connection to Jellyfin
  • Retrieving the data
  • Destroying the session
This is what you're seeing in the log.
