Guide: Running Jellyfin in Synology's DSM 7 Using Docker Compose

[Kurt]

On Container Manager's side, all you have to do is mount the music folder to let Jellyfin see all the subfolders.

On Jellyfin's side, make sure you add each subfolder directly to the music library. So directly mount all your genres to the library.

Hum, probably that was what i done the 1st time. I'll try it out.

Just to be sure: On the yaml file i just use "- /volume1/music", right?

You update the yaml file to the newest version number, then build. Container manager will handle the rest. It will pull the image, then shut down the current container, rebuild it with the new image version, then deploy it again.

Let's see if the next time i don't screw up everything again 

Check out Tailscale. It offers a free mesh VPN service (free up to 3 users) that lets you remotely connect together any device that you can install it on. Synology has a Tailscale package. There's also a Tailscale app for Android and iPhone too.

I would actually say that you should be using Tailscale over Synology's Quick Connect for remote access.

I don't use QuickConnect; only ddns (let's encrypt) that i configured on DSM, with reverse proxy.

Regarding VPN, i have one (not on Synology) to connect to my home network when i'm outside, and that way i can access to my Jellyfin library but it's not very good if i'm driving and want to use JF (i would have to stop to turn on the VPN, or have the VPN always on.


Thanks for your help!
