I followed trash guides to set everything up blindly and my set up is working well. But, I feel like having jellyfin in the same docker compose as my “arr” services isn’t good. So, I’d be curious to see if I should split things up. I am even wondering if i should let portainer manage everything.
You can interact with a single container if you need to, not just the whole compose group. docker compose restart jellyfin
works for your example, and “restart” can be swapped for stop or start as needed.
Splitting compose files can be a good idea, but it isn’t always necessary.
