    Hi,

    Today I have installed JF 10.9.9 on my Synology (DS920+) with docker. Zero problem there.
    Since I have several video folders (one for each language and one for dual audio), I set up all the folders in the yaml. Again no problem.
    To be quite clear : volume1/video/folder_A, volume1/video/folder_B, etc. Every folder is at the same level.

    Now, for testing purpose, I decided to add one single library pointing to one single folder. I set the content as Movies since this folder does not have any show but only movies.
    Right after setting the library, the server started to check for the content. Took some time since I have a bunch of movies.
    Once it was done, I checked the content and what I saw was the content from ALL folders.
    In other words, it does give a rat's ass of the folder I set up.
    There is no addon.
    So obviously I'm missing something here. Something big apparently.

    Why this behaviour and how to set up a libray to stick to ONE folder?

    Any hint appreciated ;-)

    Thank you

    Eric

    Can you share your full jellyfin log via pastebin?

    Using an example directory that your logs are using:

    /DA/ISO & DVD/Ar War With The Army/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_2.VOB

    Can you explain to which directory did you link the library to?

    My guess is that you linked to the first DA directory.

    Could you also share a screenshot of how you mounted the directory to the library?

    You pointed your library at /DA. /DA has a lot of content in it that aren't movies. Jellyfin has no way of knowing what is a movie and what is a show or something else. You have to point it at a specific folder that only has movies. If you have multiple folders with movies in it, you are able to add more than one folder to a library.

    Yes, I've just noticed that the movies or tv shows or whatever that shows up when it should not are located in /DA/EN or DA/FR or DA/DA or DA/TV etc.
    The only thing is those paths are not real. There is no DA/FR/ or DA/DA/ or DA/whatever (besides movies franchise such as Star Wars which gives /DA/Star Wars). So I believe I have a path syntax issue somewhere.
    I checked the yaml and I had set the path as follows :

    - /volume1/Video/DA:/DA:rw
    - /volume1/Video/EN:/EN:rw
    - /volume1/Video/FR:/FR:rw
    - /volume1/Video/TV:/TV:rw

    I'm not quite sure of the syntax I used because right now I have changed to /volume1/Video:/Video:rw (could have been /Video/DA:rw unless I got my copy/paste all wrong and had something like /DA:/DA:rw and /DA:/EN:rw, etc. ).

    So I thought I had to set every folder but I messed up the syntax. Now it's fixed and I've added the only /Video folder and set each library to a subfolder (/Video/DA for the first library) and it sticks to it.

    Thank you for your time ;-)
