Jellyfin assistance

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So, Jellyfin is one of those apps where the Docker documentation is really lacking. I'm gonna give you my
docker-compose.yml
file in case it helps:For me
/data/
is my RAID array, which is why my jellyfin data directory is there. Everything else goes in the same directory as the compose file. My system has a graphics card that does transcoding (Arc A380), so I have/dev/dri
under devices.You should learn a lot about Docker Compose, because it will help you tremendously. I use Jellyfin behind an Nginx Proxy Manager reverse proxy. I'd highly recommend it. Here's my compose file for that:
Running in "host" mode is important, instead of just forwarding ports, because it lets you forward things to localhost, like pointing
https://media/.[mydomain]/
tohttp://127.0.0.1:8096/
for Jellyfin.Anyway, best of luck to you, and I hope that helps!
