In Detail

Why Jellyfin on Your Own Server?

Jellyfin is completely free, with no subscription and no vendor account. Your library lives on your server and is reachable on the go without your computer at home having to run.

Jellyfin is a free media server: it organises your films, series and music, fetches covers and descriptions and streams to the Jellyfin apps for Android, iOS, smart TVs and the browser. The panel installs Jellyfin, creates the admin user and, if you like, sets up your domain with HTTPS. You then upload your media to the server via SFTP or rsync. Good to know: the servers have no graphics card, so converting videos (transcoding) runs on the CPU. Playback is smoothest when your files are in a format the player can play directly. Please only use Jellyfin for media you hold the rights to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most important questions

How much storage do I need?
Jellyfin itself requires 20 GB, the rest is taken by your library. To start we recommend 50 GB; for larger collections pick a package with more NVMe storage.
Does transcoding work without a graphics card?
Yes, but on the CPU. A single stream is usually fine, several simultaneous high-resolution conversions need many vCores. Ideally your devices play the files directly (direct play).
Which apps are there for Jellyfin?
There are official Jellyfin apps for Android, iOS, Android TV, Fire TV and the browser, among others. With your own domain and HTTPS they connect to your server encrypted.
What does Jellyfin cost?
Nothing. Jellyfin is free software without a premium subscription. You only pay for the root server package.
