    On a Synology NAS DS1522+ Jellyfin was installed via container manager and configured it to show movies, tv shows. Updated the image to the latest version 10.11.0 and lost all the metadata, libraries, etc.

    After researching, I realized that the configuration resides only on the container; it doesn't persist on the NAS and cannot be backed with hybperbackup. I have just recreated the metadata but want to make sure I can back it up. I want to be able to save the configuration on /volume1/docker/jellyfin/config and the backup in  /volume1/docker/jellyfin/config.

    Looking at the details on the container manager for the Jellyfin container, I see there is no information to persist the data. Is there a way to edit the configuration to do what I explained above?

    If I try to duplicate the container and add paths to map the container to a NAS folder for the config, cache, and backup, then I cannot see the configuration I had just recreated.  

    Using Jellyfin backup tool, I created a zip file with a backup of the recently recreated config/metadata. If I move the data to the proper folder on the NAS, how can I point the new container to the restored data?

    Please advise. I have little to no experience with docker/container manager. Many thanks.
