    I want to share parts of a library to different guests. Allowing guests access to certain libraries doesn't really make sense as that would mean I would have to potentially break up e.g. a TV series into arbitrary media libraries to share to guests if I don't want them to view the entire series.

    Using symlinks to link subdirectories of the root directory for the media library should work, right? Can someone provide an example for how to set this up with Docker? preferably via docker-compose.yml as opposed to command line arguments.

    For example, I have /data/media-libraryConfused-facemedia/media-library for docker-compose.yml and then want to share /data/media-library/vacation-pics/europe from the host to Jellyfin running in Docker. I just want to be able to create/delete a symlink on the host system to add/remove access to subdirectories in the media library (I suppose doing this on the host side is the simplest).

    Much appreciated.
