How are you trying to run Jellyfin? What part isn’t working for you?
I have it as a Docker container in Ubuntu and it works perfectly. The only trick was I had to find jellyfin’s internal docker IP address to do the initial Jellyfin server setup steps.
Did you sync your library? It was confusing for the first time for me as well, but Jellyfin requires you to synchronise your library if you add or remove files.
Docker is basically similar to a flatpak: you download a package via Docker and it will practically do everything for you, so you only have to take care of the config file, if even needed.
The easiest way is Docker Desktop, though I myself installed only the docker engine itself, which still was pretty easy to do. I did that because I had a dedicated server with no GUI. It does require to add the reposity though, but the documentation is pretty straightforward to follow.

I set it up and the server has no files in it. I log in on the TV and the browser, but I don’t see the files on the TV.

Yeah, I tried that. No luck.
I would guess you have an issue with your docker volume or bind mount then, assuming you built it as a Docker container?
No, honestly I’m not even clear what a docker is.

I like this. Do you have a DL link for it?

Files? You pick the media from the library, files are abstracted away.
The files are in the selected folder on my computer. There are no movies on the TV.
