    If you want to create a sort of curated library for your friend, you can use symlinks in the curated library to point to folders in your existing library.  You can limit what your friends library has, but also not have to waste space.

    The first user has no issues.
    When the friend user is set to "enable access to all libraries", it does see all content without a problem --> no permissions issue.
    Also note the log I added, it shows a clear error and crash, not related to permissions.

    I definitely do not want to mess with local folder structure or filesystem. If that is needed, I assume the feature "multiple users" is simply not what I thought it was.. not being able to simply select folder paths to specific tv shows to only share specific shows with a secondary user.

    But the error message "duplicate path" must be an indication of misconfiguration. I just don't understand how. I only added the one mentioned path to "Friend Shows" library.
