JF doesnt see media folder - Wundo-1 - 2023-11-01
Hello i am trying to get into networking, starting with a media server i followed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqG53Bp64hc) this video it sets jellyfin up through docker-compose. I have my media on an internal drive and when i try to link jellyfin to the media folder i cannot navigate to the correct drive or most of my drives, its giving me a few folders that i recognize when setting up the container (config and cache). i suspect jellyfin only has permissions to access the config and cache folders that i created during setup but for some reason its able to access the movie foler under a different pathway?? i posted a photo of what i see when i go to link jellyfin and the media folder (the media option isnt F
drive and it only shows the movies , the other photos are of the location of my media that i am trying to see through jellyfin.idk if this helps but i tried editing the docker-compose.yml to see if i could add it that way but no luck. am i doing something wrong?

windows+docker?
do not recommend the use of docker with WSL2 ...
