SOLVED: No media appears in new Jellyfin setup

[Tr33MuggeR]

Can you share your full docker compose for Jellyfin?  Also, since you mentioned PUID and PGID, I'm assuming you're using the linuxserver image for Jellyfin?

What file system is your hard drive using?  And since it is mounted in /media/[user]/[drive folder] I am assuming you allowed Linux to auto-mount this drive, correct?  Consider manually mounting it in a different location since /media/[user] is protected by an ACL that is likely the reason that Jellyfin is unable to access the contents.

I wrote up a guide for doing that at the link below.

I followed your document, which was very helpful.  The system used is ext4,and the drive is now mounted manually.  Unfortunately, I am still running into the same issue.  I probably just don't have a good enough understanding of permissions.

docker-compose.yaml:

Code:

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: jellyfin/jellyfin
    container_name: jellyfin
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Americas/New_York
    volumes:
      - ./jellyfin_config:/config
      - /media/[name]/big/jellyfin/media/books
      - /media/[name]/big/jellyfin/media/movies
      - /media/[name]/big/jellyfin/media/music
      - /media/[name]/big/jellyfin/media/shows
    ports:
      - "8096:8096"
    restart: 'unless-stopped'
