Hello, and sorry if this has been asked before but I can’t seem to find an answer on this forum.
I use Jellyfin in Docker and an external hard drive named “dimepiece” and have paths set up like this within the container:
- TV shows are in /dimepiece/tv-shows
- Movies are in /dimepiece/movies
If I move my media to a new hard drive, let’s call it “venti,” and want to change the paths within the container to avoid myself some confusion, I would want it to be like this:
- TV shows are in /venti/tv-shows
- Movies are in /venti/movies
Can I do this in Jellyfin without having to rescan each library and rebuild metadata? For now the only way I can think of is going to Libraries and changing the folder paths, but that would require a full rescan and rebuilding of metadata, wouldn’t it? Or am I wrong about this?
I know in Sonarr and Radarr it’s very easy to change the root folders. I’m looking for this type of solution, if possible.
Thank you for your help!
