movie libraries only work if placed in /docker/jellyfinht/config/config/users/ - TechDawg - 2025-05-05

If I upload a new movie and place it in its own folder inside of movie libraries only work if placed in /docker/jellyfinht/config/config/users/, then create a library and assign access to a user, the movie plays just fine.  If I place the movie ANYWHERE ELSE on the system (I'd prefer /media/movies/[MovieNameHere]), it doesn't work.  I go in and change the library info to point to the correct folder, go back to the dashboard and re-scan all libraries.  Nothing works.  New libraries MUST BE placed /docker/jellyfinht/config/config/users/.  This just HAS to be a setting either I or my intern changed somewhere.  Thoughts?

Guessing very much so it's a permissions issue. Recreate the issue and upload your Jellyfin log to privatebin.net.
