Jellyfin

Jellyfin is the free media server on Dankserver — a podman quadlet service (jellyfin.service, generated from dankserver/jellyfin/quadlet/jellyfin.container) serving music, movies, and shows over LAN. It replaced the earlier research brief; it runs alongside Plex, which remains the primary server for some clients.

Host: Dankserver (192.168.0.235) — Access: http://192.168.0.235:8096, public vhost jelly.franksdank.cloud behind the Anubis guard chain → Authentik outpost (post-auth route proxies localhost:8096).

Facts (verified from the live unit, 2026-09-03)

Item	Value
Unit	`~/.config/containers/systemd/jellyfin.container` → `jellyfin.service` (user manager), `Restart=always`, `RestartSec=5`
Image	`ghcr.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest`
Network	`dankserver_appnet`; publishes 8096/tcp, 8920/tcp, 7359/udp, 1900/udp
Data roots	`/home/dank/Containers/jellyfin/config:/config`, `/home/dank/Containers/jellyfin/cache:/cache`
Media	`Volume=/mnt/entropy:/data:ro` — the whole Entropy Volume mounted read-only; nothing automated writes to it
GPU	none — no `AddDevice`; CPU decode only (jellyfin-ffmpeg path)
Env quirks	`DOTNET_SYSTEM_IO_DISABLEFILELOCKING=true`, `LD_PRELOAD=libjemalloc.so.2`, `MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=131072` kept verbatim from the compose-era container (zero-drift cutover)
Health	`curl -f http://localhost:8096/health` every 30 s

Data layout

/home/dank/Containers/jellyfin/config   -> /config   (JELLYFIN_DATA_DIR)
/home/dank/Containers/jellyfin/cache    -> /cache    (JELLYFIN_CACHE_DIR, XDG_CACHE_HOME)
/mnt/entropy                            -> /data     (read-only media volume)

Library folders point at /data paths; because the mount uses the same absolute path as on the host, library paths survive container recreation.

Ports & access

Port	Proto	Purpose
8096	TCP	Web UI + API (`JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl=http://192.168.0.235:8096`)
8920	TCP	DLNA/UPnP root device control
7359	UDP	service discovery (client auto-discovery)
1900	UDP	SSDP discovery

Client access paths and the public-exposure policy (auth wall required before any public vhost; Plex-style claim tokens do not exist here — Jellyfin uses its own users/API keys) follow the fleet Authentik/Anubis chain pattern.

Configuration workflow

Create libraries pointing at /data folders (movies, shows, audio).
Set metadata/language preferences (LANG=en_US.UTF-8 pinned in the unit).
Configure clients to use http://192.168.0.235:8096 or the guarded vhost.
