I'm probably gonna set up Jellyfin this weekend. Any tips for a first timer?
If setting up official docker container looks hard, check out linuxserver.io's docker container for Jellyfin. Even HWA is very easy.
You can't even fucking bring yourself to write hardware acceleration for the newbie asking for help?
🤡
Take it slow.
Don't ditch Plex just yet but slowly transition the move.
Test it with your usual browser. If playback doesnt work, test with another browser or the phone app.
Set up docker. I ran an installation on Linux and on Windows for a few years but having it running from docker using external drives for library is a game changer. Always up to date. User files and settings Safed on a seperate folder so you can transfer it to a different os any time. Fantastic.
This, also a recurring thing I keep hearing from people moving from Plex to Jellyfin is that not all media get recognised correctly.
Which is probably because Jellyfin is less forgiving on file structure, file names. So check their site first for what Jellyfin needs: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/shows
It's not unreasonable requirements just seems somehow Plex didn't care about structure as much.
Just use the arrs correctly and there will be no issue except for weird stuff.
Not an option everywhere outside the states. I mostly have to do that by hand
How so?
I am outside of the states and have absolutely no issues with recognition. Not for TV, movie nor anime.
And it's usually available on tmdb or tvdb.
Should have clarified. It's not an option if you want to use it to get content that is not in english. For german content for example, you need access to german private trackers which you only get with a good torrenting record in addition to catching the exceedingly rare opportunities to get an invite.
Doesnt matter.
I download multiple things with radarr from 3 available german trackers without issues.
Imports properly and depending on my jellyfin library settings will get either german or english metadata.
Dunno what you are having trouble with.
I accidentally download German things all the time on mine.
I set up tail scale with mine so I can easily access it anywhere.
