Hi!
I've just installed jellyfin a week ago and I'm still trying to figure out how it works, what I can do with it and what would work best for my use, so my setup is a bit of a mess.
I've been wanting a media server for a long time but I had never gotten around to doing it because setting up a server seems very intimidating when you haven't the faintest clue what you are doing, and learning to do stuff on Windows was such a massive pain for me, constantly having to fight my OS was so exhausting that I just didn't have the energy. I finally switched to linux almost a year ago (I still feel like my head is going to explode at any moment ^_^) but recently I've been bored due to tragically achieving a config I am mostly happy with (beware the bored arch user with too much time on her hands) so instead of one of the massively stupid projects I keep in mind for when I'm really bored, I thought I'd try something sensible first and to my utter amazement I got docker and jellyfin to work on my NAS.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to organize my collection for it to work well with jellyfin. It has a bit of everything : books, audio books, music, music videos, movies, series, etc.
I haven't managed to set up a remote access yet but I'm working on it. Not that it'd be any use with my crappy connection, but hey, that bastard OpenVPN started it and I can see that he's mocking me JUST YOU WAIT I'LL GET HIM >_<
