s8n e19f20eb75 Add file-structure rules + per-library theming research
- 05-file-structure-rules: 1165-line authoritative ruleset covering 11 media
  categories (movies, tv, anime, stand-up, concerts, docs, home video, extras,
  subs, artwork, NFO). Architecture A flat layout chosen at
  /home/user/media/{movies,tv,anime,musicvideos,music,home}. Top 3 gotchas
  surfaced: no-per-item-folder breaks extras/NFO; year must be in parens;
  anime absolute numbering past 99 needs Shoko or split-by-TVDB-season.

- 06-per-library-themes: 319-line research memo. Verdict: partially feasible.
  No native per-library theming; CustomCss is global, Jellyfin web sets no
  body class for libraryId/collectionType. Recommended approach: JS Injector
  plugin (n00bcodr fork, MIT, last release 2025-12-08) + ~30-line shim that
  mirrors topParentId/collectionType from URL hash to body class, plus three
  scoped CSS blocks (body.lib-movies, body.lib-anime, body.lib-music).
  Reaches 'tinted, branded, recognisable' — not pixel-perfect. Pixel-perfect
  fidelity needs subdomain split (3 instances) at ~100x maintenance.

jellyfin-stack

Self-hosted Jellyfin media server on nullstone, LAN-only.

Endpoint

  • https://tv.s8n.ru — accessible only from LAN (192.168.0.0/24) and Tailscale admin/infra tags via Traefik no-guest@file middleware.
  • DNS resolved internally by Pi-hole (/opt/docker/pihole/etc-pihole/custom.list).
  • TLS via Let's Encrypt DNS-01 (Gandi).

Storage

Path Purpose
/home/docker/jellyfin/config/ Jellyfin config + DB (writable, UID 1000)
/home/docker/jellyfin/cache/ Transcode + image cache
/home/user/media/movies/ Movies library (mounted RO)
/home/user/media/tv/ TV library (mounted RO)

Routing

Traefik docker-label provider does NOT pick up the labels on this container (unknown reason — file-provider routing for the same backend works). The deploy uses file-provider routing in /opt/docker/traefik/config/jellyfin-test.yml. If you fix the docker-provider issue later, flip routing back to labels and remove the file-provider snippet.

Transcoding

GTX 1660 Ti is present on nullstone but nvidia-smi currently fails — driver is broken or not loaded. Jellyfin runs CPU-only transcode for now. After fixing the driver, add the standard NVIDIA hwaccel block in compose:

deploy:
  resources:
    reservations:
      devices:
        - driver: nvidia
          count: all
          capabilities: [gpu]

…and enable NVENC in Jellyfin's Playback → Transcoding settings.

First-run setup

  1. Browse to https://tv.s8n.ru from the LAN.
  2. Create the admin user (Jellyfin onboarding wizard).
  3. Add libraries pointing at /media/movies and /media/tv inside the container (these map to /home/user/media/{movies,tv}).
  4. (Optional) Apply Netflix-style theme — see docs/04-theming-and-users.md.
