Jellyfin on Ugreen DXP2800 - Teppy81 - 2025-07-17
I need some help setting up the Jellyfin app properly on my DXP2800 NAS.
I'm quite new to managing both NAS devices and media centers, so I'm still learning.
I was able to download Jellyfin via Docker, open the configuration page for the image, and even create a container. However, I'm having trouble creating a "Movies" folder that points to my external hard drive connected to the NAS.
At the moment, I can only work inside the shared folder on the NAS.
I'm also struggling with creating aliases or symbolic links to folders on the external drive — I simply don't know how to do it.
Is there anyone who could guide me through this? I'd really appreciate any help!

Welcome aboard :-)
Heres a part of my docker-compose.yml file about the config, cache and other paths (I have much more, but this is just to give you an idea of what you might need in your docker-compose.yml
volumes:
- ./config
config- ./cache
cache- type: bind
source: /mnt/disk1/data/JMS1
target: /JMS1M
read_only: true
- type: bind
source: /mnt/disk2/data/JMS2_2
target: /JMS2M2

I have the same NAS drive and still learning. But Ugreen sent out an update recently that allows you to install Jellyfin directly onto the NAS. Once installed log onto your NAS from any computer and the Jellyfin server can be access through the web browser. Super simple set up for me got it up and running in a fraction on the time it took me to get Plex up and running
