    Transferring to a new server

    Can I transfer my Jellyfin over to a new server and keep all settings and users?

    I am new to JellyFin and run it in a docker container on a DS224+ with Celeron CPU (Gemini Lake). I am definitely not a pro user...

    I've invested a lot of time in JellyFin working on the Metadata of the files. Now I want to be able to save and restore them. But at the moment I don't have the knowledge to do it...

    Here are my questions:

    1. Where can i find the two storage locations “/var/lib/jellyfin” and ‘/etc/jellyfin’ TheDreadPirate describes?
    In the DSM Filemanager I can only find the “config” folder described by Efficient_Good_5784 (in the “docker” folder). Can't I just copy this one?

    2. I understand that I have to reset permissions. But I don't understand how to reset them by using the command prompt "sudo chown -R jellyfin: /var/lib/jellyfin /etc/jellyfin".
    Where do I have to execute this command?

    3. Another (offtopic) question: Is hardware acceleration still not possible in JellyFin versions > 10.8.11?

    Thanks in advance!
