You're looking to set up your own server with Unraid and run Jellyfin, but you want flexibility—access from anywhere and use it on your smart TV without installing Tailscale on your devices. I can help guide you through this process. Let me break it down clearly.

Ensure your smart TV and server share the same network (subnet) so they can locate each other. Avoid exposing server services directly to the public internet for security reasons. Consider using Tailscale to securely connect your server to remote devices via a VPN.

If you decide to proceed, I found several articles suggesting it's possible with nginx. Right now I only have a domain, so the next steps are unclear. This is my first time using nginx, do anyone have advice on setting it up as a reverse proxy?
