is it possible to easily setup a way for your jellyfin server to be used outside of your house? For instance, if I wanted to let my grandfather use it with the rokus from his house, or if I wanted to leave the server at my house and still use it from college, could this be done fairly easily without too much trouble?
Or would this be an issue legal wise or difficult to code/network somehow?
Not a networking guy, but from what I read the included port forwarding features (any port forwarding really) can open up vulnerabilities if you’re not knowledgeable with network security. The safer way to do things is through a vpn. I set up a WireGuard vpn on a raspberry pi and it has been good enough for me. This might not allow you to use it on a Roku though.
