Raspberry Pi USB storage as library - hhh333 - 2023-10-15

Hi,
I am trying to add USB storage connected to RPi as Library.

Code:
df
/dev/sda3                248750076  44173216 204576860  18% /media/pi1/Disk

Added rights for jellyfin user:
Code:
sudo chown -R jellyfin:jellyfin /media/pi1/Disk
sudo chmod -R 755 /media/pi1/Disk
Tried it with 777 and restarted.

Then when adding library

I don't see the "Disk" part.

I have another library in another location on RPi which works fine and I can locate the folder and it's visible where 3 dots are in this picture.
I tried to just write the rest there but it didn't work.

Is my command to give access to folder wrong or where am I making a mistake?

Thanks.
R

Manually type in the path and try to add anyway. See what happens.

I get this:
Code:
The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again.

This command would only get run on "Disk" and all the folders under it.

Code:
sudo chown -R jellyfin:jellyfin /media/pi1/Disk

Does jellyfin have access to /media and /media/pi1?

It didn't. But it could see the folders.
I ran it on the higher folders and it works.
Thanks.
