    I have connected my OneDrive to my ubuntu machine under /home/ubuntu/OneDrive. I can access all the files under this folder but when I try to connect my jellyfin to acces the movies that I have in that folder it doesn't show anything, more precisely it doesn't show anything under /home/ubuntu folder. From what I've read on other threads it has do to with permission , I've tried changing that but I couldn't really help it.

    Jellyfin runs as its own user and home directory access is restricted to its owner. Your options are to remount OneDrive somewhere safe to open permissions (/mnt/OneDrive?) or open the permissions on that home directory (not recommended).
