How do I log in to Jellyfin?

Apps 98 views Markdown
  1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
  2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "Jellyfin is ready". The page refreshes itself.
  3. Click Open app.
  4. Enter the details from the Login and Password rows. The login is yonetici, which is Turkish for "admin". There is no setup screen.
  5. Upload your files over SFTP to the /opt/seturack/jellyfin/medya folder on the server.
  6. Choose Dashboard > Libraries > Add Media Library and pick the path under /media as the folder.

Further down the page, the Username row and the Password row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to Jellyfin.

Good to know

  • The server has no graphics card, so video transcoding runs on the CPU. Direct playback isn't affected.
  • The Jellyfin documentation recommends 8 GB of memory for an average deployment (4 GB may be enough on a Linux server without a screen). For several viewers or a large library choose 8 GB or more; you can grow the size later.
  • In the phone and TV apps, use the Site address value as the server address.
  • The site opens over HTTPS on a free sslip.io address based on your IP. If a certificate can't be issued, it opens over http:// instead. Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.

To use your own domain, see this article.

No server yet? Order a server with Jellyfin installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
