 You can run nodecast-tv easily using Docker.
 
-Container images are published to `ghcr.io/technomancer702/nodecast-tv` when a GitHub release is published. Use a version tag such as `v2.2.1` for the release: stable releases publish image tags `2.2.1`, `2.2`, and `latest`; prereleases publish their full version tag without updating `latest` or the minor-version alias. Branch pushes, tag pushes alone, and draft releases do not publish images.
+This fork uses `gitea.anthonybouteiller.ovh/blomios/nodecast-tv:latest`. Images are built and published manually from the local checkout; Compose pulls the published image and does not build from GitHub.
+
+Before publishing, log in interactively (enter your password or personal access token at the prompt; do not put credentials in this repository):
+
+```bash
+docker login gitea.anthonybouteiller.ovh --username blomios
+./build-push.sh                 # Build this checkout and push :latest
+./build-push.sh v2.2.7-local     # Build and push only this tag
+```
+
+The script can be invoked by absolute path from any working directory. It requires Docker and a running Docker daemon, stops if the build fails, and performs a real push when invoked. It uses local files, including uncommitted application changes. `.dockerignore` excludes runtime data, caches, local environment files and credentials. Keep any other secrets outside the build context. Builds target the builder's platform; they do not publish a multi-platform manifest. Publishing a version tag does not also update `latest`.
+
+Gitea's package registry must be enabled and reachable through the reverse proxy at `/v2/`. Your account must be allowed to publish packages under `blomios`. With 2FA/OAuth, use a personal access token with package read/write permissions; private image pulls also require login with package read access. Authentication, package activation and remote push have not been verified by adding this script. See the [Gitea container registry documentation](https://docs.gitea.com/usage/packages/container/).
+
+To use another image repository or deployment tag, set `NODECAST_IMAGE` (registry/path without a tag) and `NODECAST_TAG`. Both the script and Compose support these variables; the script's positional tag takes precedence. Export them in your shell for both commands (the script does not load `.env`):
+
+```bash
+export NODECAST_IMAGE=gitea.anthonybouteiller.ovh/blomios/nodecast-tv
+export NODECAST_TAG=v2.2.7-local
+./build-push.sh
+docker compose pull
+docker compose up -d
+```
