Also, it didn't work.... Movie folders still not showing up in JF.

Edit: Plex still works fine. But all my media folders are inaccessible outside of CasaOS, and the Movies folder is now completely inaccessible, which I was able to access both inside and outside of CasaOS, and presents this quirky little tidbit: https://imgur.com/IvgByEN. The movie in question is something I deleted a while ago, after watching it.
When running the setfacl command I noticed it was trying to apply it to several folders of movies I had deleted. Maybe this is something of a clue?

My server is on CasaOS, inside Debian 12. Everything is up to date.
I've loaded a few images to Imgur to help aid you in understanding my predicament: https://imgur.com/a/VlLhWXv. But first, please read on.

Here's the thing: my server used to be on Windows and my Movies and TV Shows folders are still on NTFS HDs, because I had no way of formatting the HDs without losing everything (which I didn't want to do).
I installed Debian 12 and CasaOS with no issues. I have several other "apps" running on CasaOS that can read these same folders, including Plex. But for some reason JF insists on not reading the contents of my "Movies" folder (which is in a dedicated HD named "Filmes 8TB").
These folders' mount points are /media/myuser/Filmes 8TB/Movies and /media/myuser/Séries 8TB/TV Shows.
Everything works fine while adding the TV Shows folder, but for some reason the Movies folder doesn't show anything inside it.
In Imgur you'll find my volumes configs, a sample of my movies' folder permissions and the permissions for my volumes, as well as three JF screenshots for adding my TV Shows folder and my Movies folder.

One other piece of information: this is my second install of Jellyfin. The first one was working fine until I realized that it wasn't scanning recently added movies. I then searched for a solution for this and found out that the best option was to remove my Movies library and add a new one. This is when this problem appeared.

Please, please help... I don't know what to do anymore...

- Can you list out the actual commands for the chmod and chown.
My suggestions: sudo chown jellyfin:jellyfin -R /media/media-folder and then put other user accounts in the jellyfin group. Which gains you access to those folders from the other users. However, all the files will be recursively changed and owned by the Jellyfin user account.
- When you go in a terminal and "ls -l /media/media-folder" what is the full output.
Example of what my mounted location for movies looks like: https://imgur.com/a/yDCgqjR
- If Jellyfin in hosted in the CasaOS with a Docker container, what docker container did you use and can we see the yaml and/or how you setup the command.

if you're using docker-compose file, maybe this will help:

Code:

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: 'jellyfin/jellyfin:latest'
    container_name: jellyfin
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 8096:8096
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
    volumes:
      - ./jellyfin/config:/config
      - ./jellyfin/cache:/cache
      - /mnt/windows-disk:/media

/mnt/windows-disk <- this is where I mounted my internal SSD and I didn't have to set permissions

Going backwards through EliteAlien's queries:
- My yaml file is here: https://text.is/0855. Please ignore the lack of indentations, this is just how the text pasted on the site. Indentations are correct in the file, I've checked.
- Example of my Movies folder is here: https://imgur.com/eW5hrFS, it's just that my user name and the group name (which both start with m) are blacked out.
- I can't define the user and group as "jellyfin" as that would block Plex, Sonarr, Radarr and Bazarr from accessing the same drives. I also wouldn't be able to access it outside of CasaOS or through a SMB share. Or maybe you have a solution for that?
- Using your suggestion, I have tried, once again, to chown this folder: "sudo chown myuser:myuser -R /media/myuser". The result was a lot of "Operation not allowed" (sorry, my system is in Brazilian Portuguese: "Operação não permitida", but I think this is the right translation into English) on a drive that mounts automatically to my system. Whenever I restart my system, I always have to open Dolphin, select the HDs for Movies and TV Shows, and type in my user's password, because they don't mount automatically. I tried changing this in fstab, but also lost access to these drives when I did it, so I changed it back. It also showed, again, folders that I have already deleted from my system and that do not show up in Dolphin. Here's a screenshot: https://imgur.com/G4rv3pz. Rebooted and... NOPE! It just refuses to access it!
- New information: now Plex also can't access the same folder. This is unrelated to the chown command above, since it began before I even checked your reply.
