Jellyfin Alpha Jump cover

Description

Alpha Jump is an installable Jellyfin 12.1+ plugin for Jellyfin Web. In supported library grids, it changes the native alphabet picker from letter filtering into a direct scroll to the first matching rendered title—while retaining the complete rendered library - Plex like scrolling now in Jellyfin. Jump with the alphabet picker or keyboard shortcuts.

It preserves Jellyfin's renderer, appearance, playback, cards, and normal controls. Alpha Jump does not fetch items independently or replace the library view. When its safety conditions are not met, the native alphabet picker keeps its normal filtering behavior.

What Alpha Jump does

Scrolls to the first card whose rendered data-prefix begins with the chosen alphabet letter instead of applying Jellyfin's alphabet filter.
Offers keyboard shortcuts: Prefix (default) uses Shift+J, then a letter or # within two seconds; Plain jumps directly with a letter or #. Choose Off to disable shortcuts.
Keeps non-alphabet filters and search constraints intact.
Treats A–Z as stateless jump commands: repeated clicks or keyboard commands repeat the jump without a persistent highlighted or selected letter. # returns to the top.
