Please describe your bug

The Debian Jellyfin install metapackage points jellyfin to the wrong location for jellyfin-web. This issue is documented here with a fix: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/8976

However, even after performing the command to fix it (sudo jellyfin -w /usr/share/jellyfin/web) the web UI does not load, it just displays the jellyfin logo and never goes to the configuration screen (as opposed to displaying Unable To Connect).

I suspect this may be due to the above fix no longer working?

greg@hp600g2mini:~$ sudo systemctl status jellyfin-web
Unit jellyfin-web.service could not be found.

# Jellyfin systemd configuration options

# Use this file to override the user or environment file location.

# Alter the user that Jellyfin runs as

# Alter where environment variables are sourced from
#EnvironmentFile = /etc/default/jellyfin

# Service hardening options
# These were added in PR #6953 to solve issue #6952, but some combination of
# them causes "restart.sh" functionality to break with the following error:
#   sudo: effective uid is not 0, is /usr/bin/sudo on a file system with the
#   'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root privileges?
# See issue #7503 for details on the troubleshooting that went into this.
# Since these were added for NixOS specifically and are above and beyond
# what 99% of systemd units do, they have been moved here as optional
# additional flags to set for maximum system security and can be enabled at
# the administrator's or package maintainer's discretion.
# Uncomment these only if you know what you're doing, and doing so may cause
# bugs with in-server Restart and potentially other functionality as well.

In addition, something is wrong with installing and setting up ffmpeg via the jellyfin-ffmpeg5 installer that the metapackage utilizes:

After apt installing ffmpeg manually, the web UI still does not load, although it's unclear to me whether this is due to the jellyfin-web error or some other bug.

Unrelated to issue: is it recommended to use for hardware acceleration VA-API, or QSV?

What method did you use to install JellyFin? I recently install JF on Debian 11 (stable) and used the cURL script that sets up the APT repository and everything for you, and I didn't experience this problem.
