+# Jellyfin RPM
+
+## Build Fedora Package with docker
+
+Change into this directory `cd rpm-package`
+Run the build script `./build-fedora-rpm.sh`.
+Resulting RPM and src.rpm will be in `../../jellyfin-*.rpm`
+
+## ffmpeg
+
+The RPM package for Fedora/CentOS requires some additional repositories as ffmpeg is not in the main repositories.
+
+```shell
+# ffmpeg from RPMfusion free
+# Fedora
+$ sudo dnf install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
+# CentOS 7
+$ sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/rpmfusion-free-release-7.noarch.rpm
+```
+
+## ISO mounting
+
+To allow Jellyfin to mount/umount ISO files uncomment these two lines in `/etc/sudoers.d/jellyfin-sudoers`
+```
+# %jellyfin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/mount
+# %jellyfin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/umount
+```
+
+## Building with dotnet
+
+Jellyfin is build with `--self-contained` so no dotnet required for runtime.
+
+```shell
+# dotnet required for building the RPM
+# Fedora
+$ sudo dnf copr enable @dotnet-sig/dotnet
+# CentOS
+$ sudo rpm -Uvh https://packages.microsoft.com/config/rhel/7/packages-microsoft-prod.rpm
+```
