SOLVED: Jellyfin not scanning directories.

[Ivorychalice]

Jellyfin probably doesn't have access to the higher up paths.  Your home directory should be used for files only you can access.  If you have files that need to be accessed by other users, it's best move them somewhere else.

/media or /library or something like that.  Make sure the jellyfin user has at least read and execute permissions on the directory.

my mistake, i didn't place the folder in my home folder, i placed it in the user folder. But I still don't know where to put it.
