    I installed jellyfin in privileged mode on proxmox using the command below.
    bash -c “$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/mai...ellyfin.sh)”
    source) https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

    The file server is using synology 7.2.2, NFS v4.1.

    I have 2 issues.

    1. the manual library scan doesn't work when there are no files in the directory.
    for example)
    if I have 3 files in my movies directory and 3 thumbnails are created in the library, and I delete all 3 files in the directory, then when I manually scan again, the 3 thumbnails in the library don't disappear.
    But if I do a manual scan with only 1 file left, then there is only 1 thumbnail left and it clears normally.

    2. Real-time library monitoring is not working.
    fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 4194304
    inotifywait -m /data
    and so on, but it didn't work.

    Can you help me?

    2. Real time monitoring doesn't work over network shares. NFS, on paper, is supposed to. But in practice it doesn't.

    It's possible that the issues with #2 are causing #1.

    Turn off real time monitoring with network shares. NFS or CIFS/SMB.

    oh my god

    If so, are there any other alternatives?
    Like setting up a periodic scan or installing another program.

    If the jellyfin server is configured separately from the data server, what is the ideal connection method?

    Jellyfin has a scheduled task to scan for new media that runs every 12 hours. You can change the frequency.

    Dashboard > Scheduled Tasks > Scan Media Library. Open the task, remove the current timer and add a new one (you can't edit existing timers/triggers).

    "Ideally" you would direct connect your storage via SATA or NVMe. But that is often not possible for a lot of users.
