CineDock for Unraid

Community Applications metadata, the Unraid Docker template and the portable Docker Compose file for CineDock.

CineDock is a television-first interface for the Emby, Jellyfin or Plex server you already run. It uses your existing server users, libraries, playback, transcoding, watched state and resume positions. It does not scan, copy or modify media files.

Installation

The Community Applications submission was auto-approved on 6 August 2026. CineDock will become searchable in the Unraid Apps tab after the next catalog build publishes. This repository is the canonical template and submission source.

After installing, open http://YOUR-UNRAID-IP:8945 and follow the setup wizard.

Docker Compose and other platforms

The public image supports linux/amd64 and linux/arm64. Download compose.yaml, then run:

docker compose up -d

Open http://YOUR-DOCKER-HOST:8945 and follow the setup wizard. The same Compose file can be used as a Portainer Stack, a Synology Container Manager Project, or a QNAP Container Station Application. CineDock's settings are retained in the cinedock_config Docker volume.

Optional server/credential pairs (EMBY_SERVER_URL + EMBY_API_KEY, JELLYFIN_SERVER_URL + JELLYFIN_API_KEY, or advanced PLEX_SERVER_URL + PLEX_TOKEN) keep server credentials in the container; leave the television credential field blank when the matching variable is configured. Plex account linking remains the recommended Plex setup route.

The Compose file uses ghcr.io/cinedock/cinedock:latest. The identical multi-platform image is also mirrored publicly as getcinedock/cinedock:latest on Docker Hub.

  • Portainer: open Stacks, add a stack, and paste or upload compose.yaml.
  • Synology DSM 7.2: open Container Manager > Project, create a project, and select compose.yaml as its source.
  • QNAP: open Container Station > Create > Create Application, then paste compose.yaml.

The CasaOS package has passed its local validator and is awaiting inclusion through CasaOS AppStore pull request #998.

TV app

The Android TV app is published separately at CineDock Downloads. It is verified on Fire TV and Nvidia Shield. Other certified Android TV/Google TV devices are expected to work but are not all device-tested; Zidoo and generic/non-certified Android boxes are currently unsupported.

Support development

CineDock is free. If it is useful to you, you can optionally support its continued development.
