Deploy Jelly-Clipper with one-click installation.
Self-hosted companion app for Jellyfin that creates, shares, and manages video clips from your media library.
What you can build with Jelly-Clipper
Jelly-Clipper is an open-source web companion to Jellyfin that turns any moment in your media library into a shareable clip. Paste a Jellyfin video URL, select a start and end point, and Jelly-Clipper produces a permanent clip stored alongside your library and accessible to every authenticated Jellyfin user on your instance.
Self-hosting Jelly-Clipper on a VPS keeps clips, downloaded source files, and the SQLite database on infrastructure you control, with no third-party uploads, no public sharing services, and a scheduled cron job that automatically reclaims storage by purging cached originals older than your retention window.
Key features of Jelly-Clipper
URL-based clipping
Paste a Jellyfin video URL and define start and end timestamps to generate a clip without leaving the browser.
Jellyfin authentication
Reuses Jellyfin user accounts so only members of your Jellyfin instance can view, create, or manage clips.
Permanent clip library
Saved clips persist indefinitely in each user profile with shareable links accessible to the rest of the instance.
Smart local playback
Detects when the original media file is mounted locally and plays it directly to skip unnecessary downloads or transcodes.
Automated cleanup
A configurable cron job removes downloaded source files after a retention window so the videos volume stays under control.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
