Hello everyone,
I am trying to run Jellyfin on my QNAP NAS via Portainer.io (Docker).
The container itself is running, Jellyfin starts without any problems – but I can't get the connection to my media folder to work.
There are two folders on my hard drive:
Container (created automatically by QNAP – this is where the Docker containers are located)
Media (this is where my films/series/music are located, which Jellyfin is supposed to play)
When I install Jellyfin directly as a QNAP app, everything works immediately. However, this is not the case in the container.
Attempts made so far:
Media folder integrated as a volume in Portainer (/share/media
media and similar paths)
Container settings adjusted several times
Various mount paths tested (e.g. /media, /data, /config)
System environment:
QNAP NAS 646
Latest Jellyfin
Latest Portainer.io
Docker (QNAP Container Station)
Question:
How do I correctly integrate the ‘Media’ folder into the Jellyfin container?
Do I need to pay attention to the special QNAP directory structure (e.g. /share/media), or is my error due to the mount paths in Portainer?
Perhaps one of you has Jellyfin running on a QNAP with Portainer and can tell me what the folder structure and volumes should look like.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Best regards,
