Container ID leaking into UI - spacevolvo - 2025-04-27

I know this is only a cosmetic issue and does not impact operational performance but I cannot seem to find a way to keep it from happening.

The dashboard is showing the short container ID as the server name:

   

Code:
serveradmin@jellyfin:~/podman/jellyfin$ podman ps
CONTAINER ID  IMAGE                              COMMAND    CREATED        STATUS                  PORTS                  NAMES
852e320cdf4e  docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest              10 minutes ago  Up 10 minutes (healthy)  0.0.0.0:8096->8096/tcp  jellyfin

Am I missing a setting? Is it an artifact of running jellyfin in a container? Or is this considered useful to have?

Right .. so that is an after it is up edit.  Was looking more for a way to keep it from happening.

Is there an option in the config file that can be set?

You can also edit system.xml, and I believe Jellyfin 10.11 will include the ability to configure the server name during the startup wizard.
