export metadata for easy recovery - anylettuce - 2024-05-29
In case of server crash, switching dockers, update issues resulting in reinstallation from scratch of jellyfin or even new build. A way to export metadata to easily recover everything. Where that export is held? Maybe in the media folder itself? movies/metadata_jellyfin for example

Jellyfin does not have any backup or export mechanisms. You would simply copy/backup the jellyfin data/config directories. Depending on how you installed Jellyfin, that directory varies.
