If you havs seen me post on here over the past month you know I am working on paring jellyfin with nfc tags. I have finished my guide and it is below. I hope it works for anyone who tries it. I am not the best at explaining things and will helo if anyone needs it. For my guide I used an ONN andoid tv box but any androis tv box should work.

And if you are using anything non android tv, this guide will not work.

This will be my last video about this project. I hope everyone enjoys.

NFC Guide

I am into anime, old and new, horror movies of any decade, action, fighting, and adventure. Really anything but these specifically. Looking for things that may make my collection stand out more. I am looking into getting a VHS of Ghost in the shell and Night of the living dead. I also am getting a VHS of jaws to go with my dvd.

Other things on my list are the original star wars trilogy. Original king kong. Akira on DVD as well as laserdisc. And criterion pan's labyrinth on Blu ray

Finally put the old disney movie opening on my jellyfin so my nephews can experience peak like I did. It plays before my my disney movie starts after all my old disney trailers

I used my venom disney infinity figure to play the movie on my home server

I used an NFC tag to make my pop scannable and it can now play the show on my android box

I wanted to thank some of you as many recommended me getting a 3d printed cover for my phone that I am using for my jelly fin project. Im am working on the guide now as well as the stickers for the NFC cards. But other than that, I have finished the project. Of course I will add more pops and such in the future as my media library grows.

Thanks for alll the recommendations. And if you have any suggestions on a way to evolve this feel free to let me know. I am open to all suggestions.

For context, I have been working with NFC tags recently and connecting them to my home media server. I am putting my nfc stickers on many of the Funko Pops and Figures I own, and when scanned by my old phone, it plays said show/movie on my android tv box. I devided to to this for my nephew who is young and cant use a remote too well. Thought this would be fun for him.

Well since I dont have any of his pops currently I have been testing it with mine and today I used my Bitty POP Towns Bob's Burgers Funko to play the movie.

The sound I used was Linda singing the name taken from the end of the family commercial song. If you have any other sound suggestions feel free to Imk. I will be switching what pop plays the movie when I actually get a full sized POP for the Show.

For context, I have a home server where I have all my backed up media. Recently I wanted to make use of my Funko Pops ans other statues/figures that just collect dust, as well as find a way for my little nephew to easily switch movies and tv shows since he is just learning to use a remote and struggles alittle.

So I started using NFC tags that I connected to my server to trigger tv shows and movies.

My Courags Funko screams then plays a random episode from my library

Sorry about the title typo, should say Skylanders

My NFC stickers came in today and I tested them out on some figures I have as well as my 3d printed one wish willow. They work great. I have custom sounds that are specific to each movie. Is this needed no🤣 but now I have use for my pops and figures. And this will help my little nephew be able to watch the movies he wants without having to mess with a remote.

I used tasker on my old android phone for this paired with simple nfc stickers that I put at the bottom of the figures/Pops. I did this to create a Skylanders/Disney Infinity type figure but for movies instead of video games. I also am doing this with NFC cards as well (See my last post if you wanna check that out. I did not think of that idea my self, but I saw the originsl post snd thought it looked cool) but I never saw anyone do it with figures.

Feel free to ask any questions

*** am using my android box in the video conected to my monitor. And I have the sound muted***

And before anyone says it...No I do not currently have a a Miguel O'Hara Funko Pop🤣

Setting my NFC Cards to play specific movies on my tv. Just set this one up to play obsession. Soon I will make custom stickers for the front that are the poster, and when my nfc stickers come in I will be making something super unique

He said he would fall over if he stood still. Poor Bob just wanted help😔

Still have a ways to go but I am in the process of making my own custom Jellyfin app that is designed 1 to 1 like netflix. I decided to so this because custom css for jellyfin doesnt work on Android tv, and its somethinf cool I can use to practice coding
