Jellyfin is a Free Software Media System that puts you in control of managing and streaming your media. It is an alternative to the proprietary Emby and Plex, to provide media from a dedicated server to end-user devices via multiple apps. Jellyfin is descended from Emby's 3.5.2 release and ported to the .NET Core framework to enable full cross-platform support. There are no strings attached, no premium licenses or features, and no hidden agendas: just a team who want to build something better and work together to achieve it. We welcome anyone who is interested in joining us in our quest!.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jellyfin works with the normal EmbyCon Kodi addon.
To run in a docker container:
1) Install docker
KODI: Addons → Install from Repository → LibreELEC add-on → Services → Docker
2) ssh into you machine: SSH
3) Get the jellyfin docker container
Code
- docker pull jellyfin/jellyfin
4) Create a run-time script:
docker run -d \
--name jellyfin \
-v /storage/jellyfin/:/config \
-v /storage/jellyfin/cache:/cache \
-v /media:/media \
--net=host \
-e ServerIP=$(ip route get 9.9.9.9 | awk '{ print $NF; exit }') \
--restart=unless-stopped \
jellyfin/jellyfin
Where
-v /storage/jellyfin/:/config
* Is where jellyfin stores it database and configuration files *
-v /storage/jellyfin/cache:/cache \
* Is where jellyfin stores it's cache *
-v /media:/media \
*Is where your media is stored - LE auto mounts to this location - not too sure if it is required *
chmod +x <your script> and run it.
Now log in via a web-browser at <IP-address>8096
Once you are happy everything is running as it should, change “unless-stopped” to “always”.
Useful commands.
docker logs -f /jellyfin # Show docker logs
docker stop /jellyfin # Stop jellyfin
docker rm /jellyfin # Remove jellyfin container
docker ps -a # Show containers
docker system prune # Remove ALL containers (VERY DESTRUCTIVE)

I've only tested on LE9 using RPi3 but should work for all other devices. If not - then 
I have no idea.
I've also only done basic testing, so if something doesn't work, you can ask here or for issues, ask on the Jellyfin issues page.
