First Steps

Caution

Not Yet Available

Norri is not yet released. These instructions are a preview of the setup process.

After installing Norri, follow these steps to get your media server up and running.

1. Create Your Admin Account

When you first access Norri, you’ll be prompted to create an administrator account. This account has full access to all settings and media.

Tip

Use a strong, unique password for your admin account, especially if you plan to enable remote access.

2. Add Your Media Libraries

Navigate to Settings → Libraries and click Add Library.

For each library, you’ll need to:

  1. Choose a library type (Movies, TV Shows, Music, etc.)
  2. Select the folder containing your media
  3. Configure metadata sources
  4. Start the initial scan

See Adding Media Libraries for detailed instructions.

3. Configure Users

If you’re sharing Norri with family members, create user accounts for each person:

  1. Go to Settings → Users
  2. Click Add User
  3. Set their permissions and library access

See User Management for more details.

4. Install Client Apps

Access your media from anywhere by installing the Norri apps:

Download the Norri app from the App Store (Apple TV) or Google Play (Android TV), or just open your server’s address in any web browser.

5. Optional: Set Up Remote Access

To access your media outside your home network, see the Remote Access guide.
