[Jellyfin](https://jellyfin.github.io/) is a Free Software Media System that puts you in control of managing and streaming your media. It is an alternative to the proprietary Emby and Plex, to provide media from a dedicated server to end-user devices via multiple apps. Jellyfin is descended from Emby's 3.5.2 release and ported to the .NET Core framework to enable full cross-platform support. There are no strings attached, no premium licenses or features, and no hidden agendas: just a team who want to build something better and work together to achieve it.
## Supported Architectures
Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).
Simply pulling `linuxserver/jellyfin` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.
The architectures supported by this image are:
| Architecture | Tag |
| :----: | --- |
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v7-latest |
## Version Tags
This image provides various versions that are available via tags. `latest` tag usually provides the latest stable version. Others are considered under development and caution must be exercised when using them.
| Tag | Description |
| :----: | --- |
| latest | Stable Jellyfin releases |
| nightly | Nightly Jellyfin releases |
## Usage
Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.
### docker
```
docker create \
--name=jellyfin \
-e PUID=1000 \
-e PGID=1000 \
-e TZ=Europe/London \
-e UMASK_SET=<022> `#optional` \
-p 8096:8096 \
-p 8920:8920 `#optional` \
-v :/config \
-v :/data/tvshows \
-v :/data/movies \
-v :/transcode `#optional` \
-v /opt/vc/lib:/opt/vc/lib `#optional` \
--device /dev/dri:/dev/dri `#optional` \
--device /dev/vchiq:/dev/vchiq `#optional` \
--restart unless-stopped \
linuxserver/jellyfin
```
### docker-compose
Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.
```yaml
---
version: "2"
services:
jellyfin:
image: linuxserver/jellyfin
container_name: jellyfin
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- TZ=Europe/London
- UMASK_SET=<022> #optional
volumes:
- :/config
- :/data/tvshows
- :/data/movies
volumes:
- :/transcode #optional
- /opt/vc/lib:/opt/vc/lib #optional
ports:
- 8096:8096
ports:
- 8920:8920 #optional
devices:
- /dev/dri:/dev/dri #optional
- /dev/vchiq:/dev/vchiq #optional
restart: unless-stopped
```
## Parameters
Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `:` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container.
### Ports (`-p`)
| Parameter | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `8096` | Http webUI. |
| `8920` | Https webUI (you need to setup your own certificate). |
### Environment Variables (`-e`)
| Env | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation |
| `PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation |
| `TZ=Europe/London` | Specify a timezone to use EG Europe/London |
| `UMASK_SET=<022>` | for umask setting of Emby, default if left unset is 022. |
### Volume Mappings (`-v`)
| Volume | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `/config` | Jellyfin data storage location. *This can grow very large, 50gb+ is likely for a large collection.* |
| `/data/tvshows` | Media goes here. Add as many as needed e.g. `/data/movies`, `/data/tv`, etc. |
| `/data/movies` | Media goes here. Add as many as needed e.g. `/data/movies`, `/data/tv`, etc. |
| `/transcode` | Path for transcoding folder, *optional*. |
| `/opt/vc/lib` | Path for Raspberry Pi OpenMAX libs *optional*. |
#### Device Mappings (`--device`)
| Parameter | Function |
| :-----: | --- |
| `/dev/dri` | Only needed if you want to use your Intel GPU for hardware accelerated video encoding (vaapi). |
| `/dev/vchiq` | Only needed if you want to use your Raspberry Pi OpenMax video encoding (Bellagio). |
## User / Group Identifiers
When using volumes (`-v` flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user `PUID` and group `PGID`.
Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.
In this instance `PUID=1000` and `PGID=1000`, to find yours use `id user` as below:
```
$ id username
uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)
```
## Application Setup
Webui can be found at `http://:8096`
More information can be found in their official documentation [here](https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki) .
## Hardware Acceleration
### Intel
Hardware acceleration users for Intel Quicksync will need to mount their /dev/dri video device inside of the container by passing the following command when running or creating the container:
```--device=/dev/dri:/dev/dri```
We will automatically ensure the abc user inside of the container has the proper permissions to access this device.
### Nvidia
Hardware acceleration users for Nvidia will need to install the container runtime provided by Nvidia on their host, instructions can be found here:
https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker
We automatically add the necessary environment variable that will utilise all the features available on a GPU on the host. Once nvidia-docker is installed on your host you will need to re/create the docker container with the nvidia container runtime `--runtime=nvidia` and add an environment variable `-e NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all` (can also be set to a specific gpu's UUID, this can be discovered by running `nvidia-smi --query-gpu=gpu_name,gpu_uuid --format=csv` ). NVIDIA automatically mounts the GPU and drivers from your host into the jellyfin docker container.
### OpenMAX (Raspberry Pi)
Hardware acceleration users for Raspberry Pi OpenMAX will need to mount their /dev/vchiq video device inside of the container and their system OpenMax libs by passing the following options when running or creating the container:
```
--device=/dev/vchiq:/dev/vchiq
-v /opt/vc/lib:/opt/vc/lib
```
## Support Info
* Shell access whilst the container is running:
* `docker exec -it jellyfin /bin/bash`
* To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:
* `docker logs -f jellyfin`
* Container version number
* `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' jellyfin`
* Image version number
* `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' linuxserver/jellyfin`
