real time monitoring

[chenks]

Real-time monitoring CAN work over SMB if setup correctly, and it sounds like it is setup correctly on yours.  NFS and rclone straight up cannot work with it.

if it's set up correctly jellyin isn't playing nice, as it's not picking up changes until a scheduled scan.
whereas plex does.

i've checked the jellyfin log and not seeing anything relating to watcher errors.

edit - it is picking up newly added content outwith a scheduled scan, but it's not picking up content that has been deleted automatically, those only get removed from jellyfin when a scheduled scan is done (or a manually triggered scan).
