The Introductions thread

[frostbyte]

Hi, I run jellyfin on my QNAP NAS with the help of Docker/Portainer. I'm mainly searching for a perfect solution that supports all kind of local movies and TV series media types (w/ DVD/Blu-Ray/4K disc menu support, iso/mkv files, Dolby Vision/HDR10+, all common sound formats like Atmos, True HD, DTS-HD MA etc.). As of now I use a zidoo media player with a forked jellyfin client optimized for that device and granted it direct file access. While I have to switch between the jellyfin and the native zidoo app sometimes (e.g. iso files), I can playback everything on just a single device and get all the advantage of a central media server.

At some point I might switch to jellyfin for music, too as soon as a couple of missing features are implemented. As of now I use Musicbee (Windows) and gmmp (Android) for that purpose with a manual sync approach for star ratings and playlists (partially automated with some scripts).

I'm also willing to subscribe for a recurring donation, soon.

Hello everyone!

I want to create my own home-media-server, for local and remote viewing of my favourite films.
Later I want to extend it to my music as well.

If possible I will add my own NAS into the mix, but I'll see.

Cheers

Hey!

I'm very new to the self hosted media space and I'm looking forward to learning about all the different things that can be done with Jellyfin from you!

Thanks!

Hello everyone!

I am running Jellyfin with Sonarr, Radarr, Bazarr and Prowlarr, mostly for anime.
I have 8Tb of dedicated space and I'm working on setting up a backup system.

Hey,
Im Michael.
Just got into Jellyfin since i try to convert everything from my old Mediaserver.
I'll run a simple setup with a nas and a shield TV to direct play everything.

See you

Hey everyone, I'm crunch! I've come here from Reddit! I just have jellyfin attached to my Nvidia shield, very simple setup and joined via a pin!
Anyone else's terrible? Not sure if it's the person I purchased from but it takes forever to load, if at all, and not the search is useless! Anyone got a better one pm pls

Hello folks,

I'm FraZdu, I installed Jellyfin just a few days ago and I'm thrilled :-)
Some questions are still open, that's why I joined the forum.

Best regards
