Hi everyone,
I’m trying to set up Jellyfin with HTTPS in a clean way, but I’m running into some problems when accessing it from my internal network using the official apps.
Current setup
What’s the correct way to configure Jellyfin with HTTPS on Windows Server 2019 so that:
I’m trying to set up Jellyfin with HTTPS in a clean way, but I’m running into some problems when accessing it from my internal network using the official apps.
Current setup
- OS: Windows Server 2019
- Domain: I have my own domain configured
- External access: works via
mydomain:port
(UPnP rule automatically created by the router), but only over HTTP
- Certificate: I already have a valid SSL certificate for my domain (issued with win-acme)
- When I configure Jellyfin to use HTTPS with my domain certificate, I can connect from outside my network, but from inside the LAN the official apps (iOS and Google TV) fail to connect.
- Access via browser works fine both internally and externally.
- I also tried putting Jellyfin behind Nginx with a subpath
/jellyfin
:
- Works fine in the browser
- Same issue with the apps: they refuse to connect
What’s the correct way to configure Jellyfin with HTTPS on Windows Server 2019 so that:
- The official apps (iOS, Google TV, Windows) can connect both internally and externally
- I can use my domain with a valid certificate, without relying on subpaths or non-standard ports
