    Hello, I'm having issues when trying to use Jellyfin and Audiobookshelf with one external SSD. 

    I am using a debian desktop, the drive is EXT4. 
    Jellyfin works fine when I use the command:

    chown -R user:jellyfin /externaldrive/
    chmod -R 770 /externaldrive/

    audiobookshelf will work if I use:

    chown -R user:audiobookshelf /externaldrive/

    What I tried was:

    sudo groupadd media_group
    sudo usermod -aG media_group user
    sudo usermod -aG media_group jellyfin
    sudo usermod -aG media_group audiobookshelf
    chown -R user:media_group /externaldrive/
    chmod -R 770 /externaldrive/

    But when I do that neither jellyfin nor audiobookshelf has access to the media. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks so much.
