Jellyfin doesnt detect any media at all - BaidDSB - 2025-05-19
Installed Jellyfin on TrueNAS Scale.
I dunno if i did the install wrong or something. I made the cache and config dataset. And on a separate dataset i made an smb shared media thing... and added it as the additional storage.
forgot to check host network but did so later too.
Jellyfin installs. i set it up. And chose the smb dataset folder too for the movies and shows libraries.
Heck i can even connect jellyfin app to the server. it shows fine.
But no matter what media i copy to the storage dataset from windows, jellyfin doesnt detect anything at all..

Sounds like a permissions issue.
