Jellyfin Anki Forge

Mine vocabulary from your couch. Sync directly to Anki.

Note: This is a modified fork of the original jellyfin-subtitleminer project by friedrich-de (originally named Jellyfin Miner). This fork alters the AnkiConnect behavior to always create new notes instead of modifying the most recent one.

Watch on any Jellyfin client — TV, phone, or web — and make media Anki cards on desktop or mobile. Yep, you can finally mine media straight from the couch!

Features

• Seamless Integration: Extracts subtitle cues and their corresponding screenshots and audio clips from your media directly within Jellyfin.
• 1-Click Anki Cards: Automatically maps sentence, audio, image, and the media source title to your Anki fields.
• Always Fresh: Creates a brand new note in Anki for each mining action, perfect for batch mining vocabulary.

AnkiConnect Setup

If you access the plugin from a Jellyfin server URL, you must configure AnkiConnect to allow that browser origin.

Desktop Anki

Add your Jellyfin server origin to the webCorsOriginList in the AnkiConnect configuration.

{
  "apiKey": null,
  "apiLogPath": null,
  "ignoreOriginList": [],
  "webBindAddress": "127.0.0.1",
  "webBindPort": 8765,
  "webCorsOriginList": [
    "http://localhost",
    "null",
    "https://your-jellyfin-server.com"
  ]
}

AnkiConnect Android

Add your Jellyfin server origin to the CORS Host setting. Make sure to use the exact origin, including protocol and port (e.g., http://your-jellyfin-server:8096).

Plugin Configuration

Inside the Jellyfin Anki Forge settings panel, you can configure:

• Anki Deck, Note Type, and Field Mappings (Sentence, Audio, Image, Source).
• Image Settings: format, quality, size, and animation.
• Audio Settings: format, quality, offsets, and filter presets.
