Jellyfin
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Jellyfin is a personal media server. The Jellyfin project was started as a result of Emby's decision to take their code closed-source, as well as various philosophical differences with the core developers. Jellyfin seeks to be the free software alternative to Emby and Plex to provide media management and streaming from a dedicated server to end-user devices.
|
|
|
|
Jellyfin is descended from Emby 3.5.2, ported to the .NET Core framework, and aims to contain build facilities for every platform.

## Feature Requests
|
|
|
|
While our first priority is a stable build, we will eventually add features that were missing in Emby or were not well implemented (technically or philosophically).

## Prebuilt Jellyfin packages
|
|
|
|
Prebuild packages are available for Debian/Ubuntu and Arch, and via Docker Hub.
|
|
|
|
### Docker
|
|
|
|
The Jellyfin Docker image is available on Docker Hub at https://hub.docker.com/r/jellyfin/jellyfin/
|
|
|
|
### Arch
|
|
|
|
The Jellyfin package is in the AUR at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jellyfin-git/
|
|
|
|
### Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
A package repository is available at https://repo.jellyfin.org. To use it:
|
|
|
|
0. Install the `dotnet-runtime-2.1` package via [Microsoft's repositories](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/2.1).
|
|
0. Import the GPG signing key (signed by Joshua):
|
|
```
|
|
wget -O - https://repo.jellyfin.org/debian/jellyfin-signing-key-joshua.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
|
|
```
|
|
0. Add an entry to `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/jellyfin.list` (note that Ubuntu will get `buster` but this should work fine):
|
|
```
|
|
echo "deb https://repo.jellyfin.org/debian $( grep -Ewo -m1 --color=none 'jessie|stretch|buster' /etc/os-release || echo buster ) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jellyfin.list
|
|
```
|
|
0. Update APT repositories:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
```
|
|
0. Install Jellyfin:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt install jellyfin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building Jellyfin packages from source
|
|
|
|
Jellyfin seeks to integrate build facilities for any desired packaging format. Instructions for the various formats can be found below.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: When building from source, only cloning the full Git repository is supported, rather than using a `.zip`/`.tar` archive, in order to support submodules.
|
|
|
|
### Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
Debian build facilities are integrated into the repo at `debian/`.
|
|
|
|
1. Install the `dotnet-sdk-2.1` package via [Microsoft's repositories](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/2.1).
|
|
2. Run `dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc`.
|
|
3. Install the resulting `jellyfin_*.deb` file on your system.
|
|
|
|
A huge thanks to Carlos Hernandez who created the original Debian build configuration for Emby 3.1.1.
|
|
|
|
### Windows (64 bit)
|
|
A pre-built windows installer will be available soon. Until then it isn't too hard to install Jellyfin from Source.
|
|
|
|
1. Install the dotnet core SDK 2.1 from [Microsoft's Webpage](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/2.1) and [install Git for Windows](https://gitforwindows.org/)
|
|
2. Clone Jellyfin into a directory of your choice. `git clone https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin.git C:\Jellyfin`
|
|
3. From the Jellyfin directory you can use our Jellyfin build script. Call `Build-Jellyfin.ps1 -InstallFFMPEG` from inside the directory in a powershell window. Make sure you've set your executionpolicy to unsrestricted. If you want to optimize for your environment you can use the -WindowsVersion and -Architecture flags to do so, default is generic windows x64. The -InstallLocation flag lets you select where the compiled binaries go, default is `$Env:AppData\JellyFin-Server\` . The -InstallFFMPEG flag will automatically pull the stable FFMPEG binaries appropriate to your architecture (x86/x64 only for now) from [Zeranoe](https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/), and then place them in your emby directory.
|
|
4. (Optional) Use [NSSM](https://nssm.cc/) to configure JellyFin to run as a service
|
|
5. Jellyfin is now available in the default directory (or the directory you chose). Assuming you kept the default directory, to start it from a powershell window run, `&"$env:APPDATA\Jellyfin-Server\EmbyServer.exe"`. To start it from CMD run, `%APPDATA%\Jellyfin-Server\EmbyServer.exe` |
