Separated DataDir and ConfigDir into their own subfolders
within C:/ProgramData/jellyfin by updating their paths to
"data" and "config" respectively. This improves organization
of data and configuration files.
Added startup.json with Windows-specific default paths and documentation for Jellyfin configuration. Introduced test_api.py, a Python script to authenticate with Jellyfin, create a backup, and list backups using the REST API.
Major improvements to the Jellyfin PostgreSQL Windows installer:
- Added build-installer.ps1 (PowerShell automation)
- Added jellyfin-setup.iss (Inno Setup script) and jellyfin.ico
- Added detailed installer guides and quick start docs
- Fixed startup.json defaults: removed old file, ensured Windows paths
- Updated .gitignore for installer-output and publish profiles
- Installer now supports service install, firewall setup, and PostgreSQL config wizard
- Documentation covers both quick and production-grade workflows
