FFmpeg exited with code 183 when starting movie

[Michael Tot Korsgaard]

Hi I just installed my Jellyfin media server on my Hetzner hosted ubuntu server and uploaded my first movie to it. When trying to start the movie I get an error. Looking into the log, this is what I see:

Code:

After searching online for the error code it seems to be an issue with folder permissions. My folder permissions look like this:

Code:

drwxr-xr-x  4 jellyfin root  4096 Nov 22 21:11 jellyfin_lib/

What else could be the cause of the error?

Can you share the ffmpeg via pastebin? It is in the same directory as the jellyfin log.

I hope that this is the one you are looking for.

Looks like the file is corrupt or truncated.
