Just download the portable version (assuming you're on an AMD64 platform, not ARM). Extract the Jellyfin folder to any directory you prefer, then run the jellyfin.exe file. That should be all you need to do. The app data will be stored in %LocalAppData%\jellyfin.
Thanks. Yes, that works. I've tried to login from the Swiftfin Apple TV app but don't know the username/password.
This from the server log:
[ERR] [27] Jellyfin.Api.Middleware.ExceptionMiddleware: Error processing request: "Invalid username or password entered". URL "POST" "/Users/AuthenticateByName".
Is there a default username/password?
To be clear, there was no "setup" - I only ran the jellyfin.exe file.
And, is there a Windows Jellyfin client? I suppose I should use 'Jellyfin Desktop', yes? https://github.com/Eisa01/jellyfin-desktop
Note: I don't need a Windows desktop media player. Will use Swiftfin, Kodi or Plex ATV apps for playing video.
