    I started my Jellyfin experience on an external Samsung T7 Touch SSD at my Mac Mini.
    After about 80 DVDs added to the libraries, I noticed that the disk is already nearly full and I am only about at half of my DVDs.

    So I copied all libraries to a bigger disk.
    And then ... I noticed that there is no option to set new locations in Jellyfin...
    This surprised me, as I thought this to be something that nearly every users will need to do at some point.

    As my disks are named for their type, the libraries are currently below /Volumes/T7_Touch1TB/{MOVIES,SERIES,...}
    They should go to /Volumes/CRUCIAL/MEDIA/{MOVIES,SERIES,...}

    I searched the Internet, but only found very crude manual steps for this and an old Python script for Docker and Windows.

    I then found this: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/9922

    And the last comment was, that this was "completed" in September 2023, which gave new hope - but I cannot find nothing about this and cannot even find this request in the list of feature requests.

    Can anybody give me a hint wether this is possible and even somehow implemented in Jellyfin?
    I mean, it seems to be a very common requirement to move your libraries 😅🤗

    Many thanks for any hint!
