Migrate jellyfin package to docker container on Synology NAS - DitchPickle24 - 2024-03-29
I am currently running the community jellyfin package on my Synology NAS, but would like to switch over to the official jellyfin docker image. I've seen some guides to move from PC to docker, and Plex synology package to a plex docker container, but have not been able to find any info on migrating this type of jellyfin installation.
Does anyone know of a way to make this migration, or at minimum, tranfer user logins?

My understanding is that the Synology community package is just a re-wrap of our docker image. So it should be as simple as finding where your "/config" Jellyfin directory is stored on your Synology file system and pointing the standard Docker instance of our image at it.
I don't have a Synology NAS so I can't really help you figure the specifics of where to look.
BUT, it is also possible that they've made some changes to how their version works and it isn't directly compatible with a vanilla docker Jellyfin. For example, the /config folder for a LSIO Jellyfin Docker instance CANNOT be reused with the official Jellyfin Docker. Something about differences in where config files are located.
