SOLVED: Jellyfin creates duplicate folders on every restart

[MsAllya]

Hey,

whenever I start the jellyfin docker it creates new media folders, which are named exactly like the ones where the actual media is, just all lowercase.



I can delete the wrong folders, but they will appear again after I restart the Jellyfin docker the next time. They are a bit annoying and also seem to cause problems with the file explorer because it sometimes opens the empty one when I click on the right one and vice versa.

Does anyone know what is causing this and how I can make Jellyfin stop creating those folders?

In your docker compose did you set the media paths with lower case letters?

The actual path to my media is set with uppercase letters. The container path has lowercase letters, but that is only the virtual path inside the container and shouldn't have any impact right?

What Docker UI is this and what is the path of the screenshot in your first post?

Its Unraid. But thanks, after I looked a little closer at my docker setup, I found the problem. Even if I don't quite understand what exactly was going on.

For anyone who might have the same problem and sees this in the future:

Additionally to the two paths in my last message, I had this path configured:



I think that was all in the default configuration of the docker template "bbergle-jellyfin". But if I already configured a path to the folder where "Movies" and "TVShows" are in, it doesn't make sense that I configured it again for the subfolders. After I removed the paths to the subfolders and only had "/data", the folders with lowercase didn't appear anymore.
