connection to NAS

[charlie747]

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and still learning how to use Jellyfin.
My question is:

I have a Synology NAS and would like to know if it's possible to connect my NAS with Jellyfin.

I've tried two programs similar to Jellyfin, but it's very difficult to connect, and I gave up.
Thank you very much.

You don't connect your nas to jellyfin

Jellyfin lives on your nas. You then use your clients (your phone, your TV) to connect to your nas and to Jellyfin.

You have multiple ways to connect to do that. Personally I used a reverse proxy.

Feel free to read and follow those:

- To install Jellyfin on your Synology:

- To reverse proxy into Jellyfin from outside your network:

Do you mean install Jellyfin on the Synology or have you got Jellyfin installed on another system like a Windows OS.

If you have Jellyfin installed on another system that's straight forward as you just mount the Synology to the OS and then in JF you just point to the drive.
