Jellyfin: The Complete Onboarding & Support Guide
-
🎬 Welcome to the Library!
Hi! You’re invited to my Jellyfin server! This is a private media library I run myself. If you’ve just created your account, follow this guide to get connected and start watching.
✨ Why You'll Love It
-
💎 It's totally free: No subscriptions or hidden fees. It’s just something I like to share with friends and family.
-
🌍 Watch anywhere: You can stream on your phone, tablet, or TV, even when you’re away from home.
-
📈 Always growing: I’m constantly adding new releases and whatever shows are trending.
🚀 What’s Included
-
🎬 Tons of content: A huge collection of high-quality movies and TV shows ready to go.
-
🚫 No ads: Just pure entertainment without any commercial breaks or interruptions.
-
🧠 Syncs up: Pick up exactly where you left off on any of your devices.
-
🎯 Request system: If you can’t find something you want to watch, you can just ask me to add it!
🚀 Getting Connected
You can watch on pretty much anything! Using a web browser works fine, but I definitely recommend using a dedicated app for a much smoother experience.
🖥️ On your Computer
-
Web Browser: Open Jellyfin Web
-
Desktop App: Download Jellyfin Desktop
📱 On your Phone
I recommend Moonfin for the best experience on mobile.
Moonfin (Recommended)
📺 Smart TVs & Consoles
Just search your app store for these:
-
Google/Android TV: Wholphin (Recommended)
-
Apple TV: Neptune Media Player (TestFlight Beta) or Infuse (Paid)
-
Roku / Fire TV / PlayStation / Xbox: Jellyfin
⚡ Logging in fast (Quick Connect)
Tired of typing passwords with a TV remote? Use Quick Connect to sign in instantly:
-
On your TV/New Device, select "Quick Connect" on the login screen. It will show a 6-digit code.
-
Open Jellyfin on a device where you are already logged in (like your phone).
-
Go to Settings > Quick Connect and enter the code.
🔗 Server Address
When asked for a URL or Server Address, enter exactly:
https://jellyfin.wedoto.net🌟 Other Ways to Watch
If the recommended apps above don't fit your needs, or if you are using a specialized device (like a Steam Deck, Kodi, or a custom media PC), check these resources:
🍿 Can't find it? Request it!
If there’s a movie or show you’re looking for that isn't in the library yet, you can actually add it yourself using Jellyseerr.
Option A: Use the Web Portal
This is usually the easiest way. Just sign in with your Jellyfin login. 👉 Open Request System
Option B: Requesting via Moonfin (Mobile)
Moonfin is already set up to talk to our request system by default.
-
Tap on the search icon.
-
Search for the movie or show you’d like to watch.
-
If we don’t have it yet, the title will show up under the "Seerr" section.
-
Just tap on it and hit Request!
Option C: Web Browser
When you log in, the request system should be ready to go. If it asks you to sign in, just use your Jellyfin account.
-
Click or tap the Requests button on the navigation bar.
-
Search for any movie or TV show you’re looking for.
-
Select the title and hit Request.
❓ A Few Quick Things
👥 Watching Together
If you want to watch a movie with friends remotely, SyncPlay is built right into Moonfin and web browsers. Just tap the SyncPlay icon (the little group of people) in the player to start a shared room!
🛑 Just a heads up on sharing...
I've got plenty of bandwidth, but it's not exactly infinite!
-
Please keep your login to yourself.
-
If you have a friend or family member who wants an account, just let me know—they’re free! I’d much rather give them their own login than have a bunch of people I don't know clogging up the server.
⚠️ If things act up
If you run into a broken link, a missing episode, or the quality just looks off:
-
Got a complaint? If something isn't working right, just shoot me a message. I'll do my best to fix it as soon as I can.
Keep in mind this is just a fun side project for me, so thanks for being patient if it takes me a bit to get things sorted!
🎞️ Keeping the library fresh
To keep the server fast and make room for new stuff, I’ll occasionally clear out older or already-watched movies. If something you were planning to watch disappears, just request it again and I'll grab it!
