Sync Spotify playlists into a Jellyfin music library

Jellyplist is a companion application for Jellyfin that mirrors Spotify playlists into a local Jellyfin account. It attempts to match tracks in your existing library and downloads missing tracks using SpotDL, while keeping playlist metadata and order in sync.

Key Features

  • Browse and discover Spotify playlists and add them to your Jellyfin account
  • Monitor synced playlists and reflect changes in order, additions, or removals automatically
  • Prefer local matches: search Jellyfin for tracks before attempting downloads
  • Download missing tracks using SpotDL as a fallback and update Jellyfin library entries
  • Metadata synchronization so playlists in Jellyfin include playlist metadata and track linking
  • Lidarr integration to submit artists/albums and mark content for monitoring
  • Quality-aware upgrades: replace playlist entries when higher-quality files become available
  • Uses scheduled worker tasks (Celery) and caching to reduce API load and keep tasks asynchronous

Use Cases

  • Migrate or replicate curated Spotify playlists into a local Jellyfin music library for centralized playback
  • Keep shared playlists in Jellyfin up to date with changes made on Spotify without manual copy/paste
  • Automatically submit missing albums/artists to Lidarr to automate acquisition and library completion

Limitations and Considerations

  • The project has been archived due to breaking changes in Spotify's API; some features or playlist types may no longer work
  • UI/UX is early-stage and may feel clunky or unresponsive in places
  • Requires a Jellyfin admin account for some operations due to API limitations
  • Playlist matching can fail for titles with special characters; manual linking may be required
  • Processing is performed per-track and can be slow for large playlists; default schedules are not configurable in older releases

Jellyplist is useful for self-hosted Jellyfin users who want automated playlist replication from Spotify and optional Lidarr integration. Note the project status and API limitations when evaluating it for production use.
