A lot of people are suggesting VPNs, or putting oauth or such in front of it. Unfortunately, oauth doesn't work since the jellyfin clients (like the android tv client, iOS client, etc) don't understand oauth. Using VPNs is annoying if you want to share it with a friend, or you want to use it on a random third-party device, like a TV in a hotel or something. I think all Jellyfin clients all support appending a path to the URL, so adding a password in the form of a long random path works pretty well in my opinion, i.e. https://my-jellyfin-server.com/ahY9eig3/ And you can then just have the server return 404 or such to all other requests, you can send the link like normal to friends, and you can manually type it in if you need to. That should be enough to avoid some random copyright scanner.
