Yet another post about NFS 😅
When I create a library, Jellyfin will scan the folder but not find any media. The media is hosted on a NAS and exposed through NFS, and I am setting up Jellyfin on a Docker host.
The NFS exports mount successfully, and I am able to browse the subfolders and write to files from inside the container.
I have tried mounting the NFS exports directly into the container and to the host with bind mounts into the container. If I mount the folder to the host, I am able to play the media on the host.
The file structure is an exact duplicate of a previous Jellyfin library that worked fine but was mounted locally. As a sanity check, inside the container I copied a couple movies from the NFS mount to a local Docker volume, created a new library, and Jellyfin found the media just fine.
Jellyfin 10.10.7, I've also tried to test with unstable, but that tag is accurate 😂
Docker v28.2.2
TrueNAS 25.04.1
