    Hi. 
    Having got entirely p****d off with Plex, I installed Jellyfin on my Synology NAS running DSM 7.2.
    I followed the guide from Wundertech  How to Set Up Jellyfin on a Synology NAS - WunderTech
    The guide set up the jellyfin container with a yml.
    I created the yml with these lines

    version: '3.5'
    services:
      jellyfin:
        image: jellyfin/jellyfin
        container_name: jellyfin
        network_mode: 'host'
        volumes:
          - /volume1/docker/jellyfin/config:/config
          - /volume1/docker/jellyfin/cache:/cache
          - /volume1/Films:/Films
          - /volume1/TV-Series:/TV-Series
        restart: 'unless-stopped'
        environment:
          - TZ='America/Detroit'

    As you can see, I have two media paths.

    I created the container but when it is started it immediately stops with error message 'container jellyfin stopped unexpectedly' 
    This happens each time I start jellyfin.

    I was hoping to use Jellyfin to stream to my Nvidia Shield.

    I'm sure it is an error on my part, but I can't track it down. Any help would be much appreciated. 

    If any more information is needed, i'm happy to attempt to find it :-)

    I attach settings-jellyfin.json and log-jellyfin.json and a screenshot of my file structure.

    Thanks in advance.

    For example, here's a working docker-compose.yml. I also have DSM 7.2.2.
    Code:
    group_add:
          - "937"
    "937" is "videodriver" group in my DSM, replace with ID in Your system.
    Code:
    - JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl
    enter Your value
    Code:
    extra_hosts:
    don't worry, it still doesn't work
    Code:
    memory: 6g
     substitute value by Your RAM (g = GB)
    Code:
    - JELLYFIN_TRANSLITERATOR_ID=""
    for disable the transliterator for searching subsytem (eg. cyrlilic Ч to Ch)
    Code:
    /dev/dri:/dev/dri
    is mandatory for Hardware Acceleration
