Libraries and adding music - Phil Rosa-Leeke - 2024-10-15

Hi all,

First of all, yep, another newb here.

I have just finished installing JellyFin on my M1 Macbook Air and all seems sweet. I only have two questions.

1: I created my 1st library and pointed it to my local folder that holds all my albums and tracks and at presant, when I go into the folder it shows all the albums as with artists, but if I enter the Songs, nothing just a blue circle going around. Also if I click on any album, the same thing, no tracks show up. Is it a time thing, being it's first time and having over 550 albums etc?

2: After creating my music folder I went and created one for my wife. Now two things odd happened, firstly, when saving, a pop-up said can't connect due to permissions. So, I tried again, and again, and again... well then I gave up and went back to the Home window only to find 10 folders with my wife's name! Now, how can I delete all the extra 9 folders/libraries?

I did notice something I found odd, I added just a couple of albums into my wife's folder on the MacBook and wow and behold, they apear in the library folder along with all the tracks!

Thanks in advance,

Phil

Can you share your jellyfin logs via pastebin?

The loading of the tracks etc seems to be working, just taking it's time.

As for deleting the "Music Libraries" I still have not managed that.

Excuse my lack of know how, but what the heck is "pastebin"?
