Hello everyone,

I currently have Jellyfin running through Caddy and Cloudflare as reverse proxies.

I have tried everything and can’t seem to get Jellyfin to report anything but the Cloudflare IP for clients.

Does anyone have a similar setup and could help me troubleshoot this? I can share whatever configs I am using as required.

Thanks!

Be careful about using video over the cloudflare proxy, they will come after you if you are using a TON of bandwidth

Do you know of a way to have a global caddy setting to only allow Cloudflare IPs, but “exempt” Jellyfin?

(I posted my caddy cloudflare section down below which only works as a global setting)

You would change it from orange cloud to gray cloud to disable the proxy in your domain DNS settings.

Specifically for the jellyfin subdomain.

That would be the correct solution IMO.

I thought that is was not against their TOS now.

I haven’t heard any such thing unless you are paying for their video CDN which isn’t cheap
