SSL - DanielFrank - 2025-08-03
I have a Synology NAS with a working Let’s Encrypt certificate (issued by R10) bound to my hostname, and I’d like to enable SSL for Jellyfin. Is it possible to reuse my existing Let’s Encrypt certificate, and if so, how? Jellyfin asks me to select a certificate file, which I don’t have—what steps should I follow?
RE: SSL - Generator - 2025-08-03
You should have it, stored somewhere.
But instead of adding the SSL certificate to Jellyfin, instead use a reverse proxy, and let the reverse proxy handle the SSL.

This way you can use any web services and reverse proxy handles all SSL traffic.
