Wouldn’t Kodi be better suited then? Jellyfin’s strength is its ability to transcode

For me Jellyfin’s strength is that it can keep track of my wife’s place in her shows independent from mine, and also that the metadata and watched state and progress is synced between phone, tablet, and TV.
I mean, I’d still prefer Jellyfin as its a server (we actually use Kodi fir playing the content).
Even within the house, you could stream to multiple different devices. If you use something like Findroid you could download stuff for playing offline on your phone, no external access needed.

Well, I do use Jellyfin for in-home streaming as my TV has issue with HDR content tinting, and Jellyfin fixes that on-the-fly, but it’s certainly more complex setup than pointing Kodi at a network share
Oh for sure Kodi would be easier, I was just clarifying that there are reasons to pick Jellyfin over Kodi even if it’s only ever internal to your network.
Wait I don’t have a reverse proxy because I don’t need one. I just installed the jellyfin for windows version and then you just connect to it.

Did you set up up the arr suite too? They run the background services for tracking and pulling titles, and qbittorrent downloads the files. They are all docker images and should be able to run on Win. I like Caddy as my reverse proxy, super simple to point router port 80 & 443 to the server ports for Https.
