Adding Volumes to Jellyfin container in Synology - Kaizoku001 - 2024-09-04

I just installed Jellyfin for the first time. Still new at this.

When getting my container ready for install I didn't specify each folders (movi, tv...) only the root video folder in my volume.

Now that i'm setting jellyfin up when i choose the type (ex movies) i only have the option of choosing the video folder (too much stuff in it)

How can I change it?
Do I have to reinstall?

Help Appreciated

If you only see the video folder and none of the child folders, that usually means that the container doesn't have permission to read the contents.

Is the folder a local folder or a network share you've mounted?

I'm assuming you're all set, based on what you said in your other thread?
