I'm running Jellyfin in trueNAS scale. And using SMB on Windows 11 pro to add subfolders and files.
So last night I started setting up my media folders with an anime I happened to have downloaded. After a while of playing with permissions and adjusting things I got it to work and read all of the info. So I copied the permissions and duplicated the settings for my other media types, even though I didn't have any files to test with.
Well tonight I tried to add a music file ( .flac) and it wouldn't show the folders in my music directory. The file works fine directly in the music folder, but not in an artist folder.
Turns out the only media folders that read sub folders are my anime and TV shows. I added a folder to the movies folder and it won't show up.
I looked at the log file and it shows a lack of permissions for the sub folders? Why would the same settings do different things with different types of media?
