Serviio

Serviio is a free media server. It allows you to stream your media files (music, video or images) to renderer devices (e.g. a TV set, Bluray player, games console or mobile phone) on your connected home network. This container is made by the vision of originality and compatibilty. This build was designed to follow zip's method to build windows installer transferred to Linux. The image was build from the following images:

• Image is based on anapsix/alpine-java:8u191b12_server-jre image.
• FFMPEG is copied from jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.4-scrath image.
• DCRAW is copied from ayoburgess/dcraw:latest image.
• S6 layer and setup from their github repo.

Usage

docker create --name=serviio \
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
-v <path to data>:/config \
-v <path to media>:/media \
-v <path for transcoding>:/transcode \
-e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid> \
-e SERVIIO_OPTS='serviio.cdsAnonymousAccess=true' \
--net=host cina/serviio

User / Group Identifiers

Sometimes when using data volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID. Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify. In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001. To find yours use id user as below:

$ id <dockeruser>
uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)

Setting up the application

The webui is at <your-ip>:23423/console

Add as many media folder mappings as required with -v /media/tv-shows etc... Setting a mapping for transcoding -v /transcode ensures that the container doesn't grow unnecessarily large.

Info

• Shell access whilst the container is running: docker exec -it serviio /bin/bash
• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime docker logs -f serviio.
