    Short update: I fixed the problem with a strange workaround. Here's what I did:

    • Add the new folder /data/Filme2 to my allready existing library. (Jellyfin did not scan that new folder, this is the original issue)
    • Create a new library with only the folder /data/Filme2. Jellyfin will now scan that folder for new entrys.
    • Delete that new library (remember the path still exists in the first/original library). Jellyfin will continue to scan that folder (as it is supposed to).

    Problem solved.

    My guess is there is a bug where the emby LibraryMonitor will not add a path for watching if it is a second or third path added to an allready existing library.

    Sorry for my strange english, it's not my native language.
