I know there are other posts with a similar problem but the steps in them do not resolve the problem so I'm hoping for a little help.
My current install of Jellyfin was upgraded from 10.8.9 to 10.10.3 in December but I didn't notice this problem until today. I have since downgraded to 10.10.2 to attempt to resolve the problem with no luck.
So here's what's happening:
All of my Libraries from before the Upgrade to 10.10.3 are working fine and if I add new Movies\shows to them they get added and everything is happy.
I have since decided that I am going to pull all of my Christmas movies to an external drive that I can unplug and set aside when it's not Christmas so I moved every Christmas movie from the movies folder to an external drive and attempted to add it as a library. That's when I got the first "There was an error adding the media path and please ensure the path is valid and Jellyfin has access to that location"
After getting this a few times I hit the forums and found that it is likely a permission problem. So I went through and made sure all the permissions were set to "full control" For "Everyone", "Guests", and "Users" and no change.
So I made a folder called "Christmas" in my main drive that Jellyfin uses and moved everything there. Same error.
Created a folder call "TV" on the C:\ drive added 1 video. Same error
Just to see I tried adding a Library called "Movies 2" and pointed it to the same folder as "Movies". Same error.
This is when I did a backup and uninstalled 10.10.3 and installed 10.10.2 No change.
So here's what the current setup looks like
Jellyfin 10.10.2
Windows 11 pro
16gb ram
Drives:
C: Main install
C:\TV - Not Working
D: Main Share
D:\Christmas - Not Working
D:\Movies - Working
D:\Other - Working
D:\TV Shows - Working
Y: USB External
Y:\Movies\Christmas - Not Working
Z: Synology NAS. - Been broken for a while keep putting off fixing it
A quick note. The Permissions on the D and Y drive are set Exactly the same and they are set on the drive with inheritance turned on. I have confirmed that D:\Christmas and D:\Movies have the exact same permissions.
I have attached the log file from today I cleared all logs before the 10.10.3 install so this is everything going on since then.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
