For some reason my boot disk decided not to boot anymore (Debian 12 on Intel using an mSATA drive) - no idea as it has been happy for months and all the data was still valid but it just refused to boot at all (not even the grub selection screen showed).
So after a reset of the BIOS (to make sure) and reinstall of Debian everything on the PC was back up and running so I decided to install Jellyfin under Docker rather than on bare metal as there are a couple of other things I want this box to do and they are Docker containers.
The container is set to run as a user (Jellyfin) with no home folder and this use owns the media files.
The compose file is:
Set up went fine and it found the DVD directories with no issues and seems to have indexed the movies fine except:
1) Some movies do not have the correct picture - this seems to be random even though the director (and file name) has a tmdb identifier in the form of [tmdbid-xyz] - I had changed some of them but I am 100% convinced others are now wrong
2) The odd film is duplicated despite them being in different directories with different names (and tmdbid's) - Alien vs Predator and AVP Requiem come to mind
3) The majority of collections have not been created. Such movies as James Bond, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes etc are just missing.
I do have a backup of the old system but loathe to restore that as the index files etc are in the wrong location on-going but will do if I cannot find a quick fix...
