Do you have docker privileges?

Just do everything in the install docs without sudo in your homedir rather than in /opt.

The rough procedure would be to extract the build to your home folder, extract jellyfin-ffmpeg and upload it to your home folder, edit the jellyfin.sh so the directory is correct, and then use a crontab @reboot entry to ensure it starts on boot.

It looks like you have to make it: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/administration/installing.html#installation-process
