🌐 Web browser sign-in (Jellyfin)
Stream Jellyfin in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari, or Firefox on your computer, phone, or tablet.
Before you start
- Be an active member of the Discord and have the Jellyfin username and password provided there. Ask Cruv for a Jellyfin account if you do not have one.
- Use your supplied username, not your email. An Emby account is not automatically your Jellyfin account.
Open the site and sign in
- Open https://jellyfin.blackbeardsvault.com.
- Enter your Discord-provided Username and Password. If only profiles are shown and yours is missing, use manual login.
- Select Remember me only on your own device if offered, then choose Sign In.
Expected result: your home screen and available libraries appear. Open a title and test playback.
Save the site
On a computer, press Ctrl+D on Windows or Command+D on Mac to bookmark it. On mobile, use Add to Home Screen if your browser offers it. Sign out when using a shared device.
This browser can also authorize a new device using Quick Connect.
Moonfin and desktop apps
For a native computer app, use the Moonfin desktop setup guide. The browser route on this page remains the default web option.
Moonfin also has a separate web interface served through the optional Moonbase server plugin. Do not assume it is enabled on Blackbeard’s Vault or change the server URL to guess a Moonfin path. Cruv will provide a link if that service is offered. A browser still has its own codec limits; Moonfin Web does not give it the native desktop player’s format support.
Troubleshooting
- Site will not open: retype https://jellyfin.blackbeardsvault.com, check your internet connection, and try another current browser. Report the exact message to Cruv if the site remains unreachable.
- Sign-in rejected: use the supplied Jellyfin username rather than your email, remove accidental spaces, and ask Cruv if it still fails.
- Browsing works but video fails: reload the page, update the browser, and try another title. Browser codec, subtitle, HDR, and audio support vary; the native Moonfin desktop app can be a useful alternative on a supported computer.
- Stale page or layout: reload the tab. If needed, try a private window to test the session and report your browser name/version and exact error.
Contact @Captain Cruv on Discord. Include your device model, operating system, app name/version, title, exact error, and when it happened. Never post your password.
