Jellyfin 10.9.1

[2ndwonder]

Hi

I can't seem to make this work on Jellyfin 10.9.1. Am I missing something? I followed the instructions but my custom-html-chunk.js is still empty. Could you please assist? Thanks in advance.

jellyfin:
image: jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
container_name: jellyfin
restart: unless-stopped
networks:
- proxy
ports:

this is currently getting updated, shouldnt be too long now the update to 10.9 broke... a lot of stuff.. however ive got 99% of it done now

the main issue is they changed from the known names to a random string set of names.. making it hard to do.. but not impossible

stay tuned i will close this issue when the update is pushed

update it should work but the docker image may have changed the uuiid for the file please
change compose to the following and

jellyfin:
image: jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
container_name: jellyfin
restart: unless-stopped
networks:
- proxy
ports:
- "8096:8096"
volumes:
- $DOCKERDIR/jellyfin/config:/config
- $DOCKERDIR/jellyfin/cache:/cache
- $LIBRARY:/data/media
- $DOCKERDIR/jellyfin/webroot:/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/
devices:
- /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128:rw
- /dev/dri/card0:/dev/dri/card0:rw
environment:
PUID: $PUID
PGID: $PGID
TZ: $TZ

then spin it up using docker-compose up and simply backup the original one inside webroot (yes its new and right next to your custom html chunk file) folder (using cp oldfile oldfilename.orig obviously change the oldname to the one listed in ls | grep home-html) then use cp ../custom-html-chunk.js oldfilename (from within the webroot folder)

note some may need sudo may not it depends on the drive permissions

let me know how it goes also the new update needs the three new files make.sh featuredstyles.css featuredscripts.js (it is just better and loads faster and is less arghhh when trying to debug) in my defence i made this originally while drinking so its not too bad all things considered the updated version is sober

Hi I followed your instructions but I got stuck. It doesn't allow me to inspect the container anymore after I created the folder "webroot" inside jellyfin and added the volume to my docker-compose.

But the container is already running

I backed up my container in a .tar extension and copied my home.html.chunk.js file into /volume1/docker/jellyfin/webroot. after that I followed the commands below

cp home-html.8ce38bc7d6dc073656d4.chunk.js home-html.8ce38bc7d6dc073656d4.chunk.js.orig
cp /volume1/docker/jellyfin/webroot/custom-html-chunk.js home-html.8ce38bc7d6dc073656d4.chunk.js

but now my UI of jellyfin doesn't show

okay so i see the issue and let me explain it, when you add the volume before running the container it will not populate the folder, however if you run the container first without the volume mapped then have it "rebuild" with that volume added it should work as intended (from my tests anyway)

so remove the volume from the docker compose and run

sudo docker-compose down && sudo docker-compose up then close the process with ctrl+c (or kill it via sudo kill PID ) and then edit the docker-compose.yml to have the volume mapped for webroot.. then run sudo docker-compose up this should then have the files in the folder (assuming you didnt create webroot as a blank folder beforehand.. that is important

[2ndwonder]

Does not work for me :(

[BobHasNoSoul]

I'm an idiot I gave misleading instructions

Sudo docker compose down

Then remove any mappings for web in the compose

Sudo docker compose up

Then let it load

Then sudo docker stop jellyfin

Then edit the compose to add the volume

Then sudo docker compose up
