From their [website](https://jellyfin.org/):
> Jellyfin is the volunteer-built media solution that puts you in control of your media. Stream to any device from your own server, with no strings attached. Your media, your server, your way.
On YAMS, Jellyfin is one of the most important parts: Jellyfin is going to be your "Netflix", "Hulu" or "Amazon Prime". This means you'll be able to stream your TV shows and movies to any device using Jellyfin. Best part: Is 100% open source!
In YAMS, Jellyfin is going to be your personal Netflix! 🍿 It's 100% open source and lets you stream your TV shows and movies to any device. Best part? No monthly fees!
## Initial configuration
In your browser, go to [http://{your-ip-address}:8096/]() and you'll see Jellyfin's setup page.
Choose your display language and click on "Next".
First things first - pick your display language and click "Next".

Next, on the "Setup Media Libraries" page, click on "New Library".

[![jellyfin-5](/pics/jellyfin-5.png)](/pics/jellyfin-5.png)
**Note:** This is NOT on your filesystem! The `/data/tvshows/` folder exists inside the `docker` environment and maps to your server `/mediafolder/tv/` folder!
**Magic Container Note:** 🎩 The `/data/tvshows/` folder isn't actually on your filesystem - it's a special path inside the docker environment that maps to your server's `/mediafolder/tv/` folder!
You should see your recently added folder in the "New Library" modal.
You should see your new folder all ready to go in the modal:
