    Your library is stored in library.db SQLite db-file and all the library metadata (posters, thumbnails, people/artists, views etc) is stored in metadata directory. 

    So, to avoid losing your library, you can periodically make a backup-copy of library.db and metadata directory. 

    On ubuntu-linux the library.db file is at
    Quote:/var/lib/jellyfin/data/library.db
    and the metadata dir is
    Quote:/var/lib/jellyfin/metadata

    I have a shell-script that I run on a daily cron schedule. I can share it if you'd like it but it'll only work on a Linux or Mac or Windows with WSL2 enabled.
