Setup Wizard

When Odeion starts for the first time, it presents a setup wizard that walks you through initial configuration. Follow the on-screen instructions. The wizard must be completed before the server becomes usable.

License Key

The first step requires a valid Odeion license key. You can purchase a lifetime family license at billing.odeion.app. Your key will be in the format XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX.

Beta

During the beta period, Odeion is free to use. You will receive a complimentary license key when you sign up.

Restoring from Backup

If you have a backup from a previous installation, the wizard offers a restore option at the start. Uploading a backup file will skip the remaining steps and restore your server to its previous state, including all users, libraries, settings, and metadata.

After Setup

All settings configured during the wizard can be changed later from the admin panel. If you haven’t already, set up a reverse proxy with HTTPS, which is required for mobile and TV app connections.
