Hi, new member & jellyfin user here….I was wondering if anyone can help me with a couple of things with regards to Jellyfin installed on a Synology NAS (DS220+).
Firstly, a few months back, I originally installed Jellyfin onto my NAS using Container Manager. The YouTube guide which I followed used ver. 10.8.11 of Jellyfin because later on in the tutorial he mentioned that there was some kind of transcoding issue with new versions of Jellyfin when installed on Synology NAS’s. The video of the install tutorial can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFSiHvzu_xo&t=912s
The issue with regards to transcoding is at 15.05
So, I was wondering if anyone knows if this is still the case or if it’s ok to upgrade my installation of Jellyfin to the latest version?
Secondly, if it is ok to update Jellyfin, how to you go about doing so when it is installed on a Synology NAS within Container Manager? Currently, it doesn’t show that an update is available as during the image setup/installation I used a specific version of Jellyfin (as per guide) – ‘Image Name: Jellyfin/jellyfin:10.8.11’. I’m hoping this is fairly straightforward as I don’t want to delete or lose my current Jellyfin installation as I’ve now spent a good few hours setting it up & getting all the correct metadata for my videos.
Thanks in advance.
