    I set it up and the server has no files in it. I log in on the TV and the browser, but I don’t see the files on the TV.

      Did you sync your library? It was confusing for the first time for me as well, but Jellyfin requires you to synchronise your library if you add or remove files.

      I would guess you have an issue with your docker volume or bind mount then, assuming you built it as a Docker container?

          Then I’m not sure what advice we can give you without knowing more about how you installed it and how the file structure and Jellyfin libraries are linked

          Docker is basically similar to a flatpak: you download a package via Docker and it will practically do everything for you, so you only have to take care of the config file, if even needed.

              The easiest way is Docker Desktop, though I myself installed only the docker engine itself, which still was pretty easy to do. I did that because I had a dedicated server with no GUI. It does require to add the reposity though, but the documentation is pretty straightforward to follow.

      Files? You pick the media from the library, files are abstracted away.
