    Sorry for the late reply, had something come up.

    laughing_man77 Thank you for the scripts. I don't use Docker but I am sure they will help. My question was more what files HAVE to be backed up, not about the back up process. Thank you none the less.

    Quote: You could probably omit the entire /var/lib/jellyfin/metadata/library folder. That is the largest folder, by far, and is replaceable. Keeping everything else should maintain watch status, media identification, playlists, etc.

    I figured as much, it seems to be mostly the image files for the metadata and trickplay information. I just wanted to be sure before I went and messed something up. Really the most important thing is the users login/password. other things would be annoying to lose, but that would be a pain to set up again.

    Thank you
