This is a QPKG package designed to simplify the installation of Jellyfin on QNAP NAS devices. It uses QNAP's Container Station and the official Jellyfin Docker image (jellyfin/jellyfin) with the 10.8.10 tag.

What It Needs

To use this QPKG, you will need:

• A QNAP NAS with Container Station installed and configured.
• App Store configured to allow unsigned applications. This QPKG is unsigned because it was created by me, and my public key is not available to the QNAP App Store. Allowing unsigned applications is safe in this case, as long as the QPKG is downloaded from a trusted source. You can review the source code on GitHub to ensure it doesn't contain any harmful settings.

Step 2: Install the QPKG

1. Download the Jellyfin QPKG from this repository's Releases section.

  • Open a web browser and go to:
    http://<your-qnap-ip>:8096/web/#/wizardstart.html
    (Replace <your-qnap-ip> with your QNAP’s IP address, e.g., 192.168.1.100.)
