    I want to run jellyfin on my pi4, and I want the config folder locate in an external ntfs drive, which is owned by www-data. All folder and contents are set as 777 at boot already, but I noticed if the config folder is not owned by the user, I will have permission error when installing plugin. Is there a way to let jellyfin bypass the checking ownership step before installing plugin?

    The problem is that the drive is using NTFS so setting it to 777 doesn't really work the same.

    The workaround is to manually install the plugin.

    https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server...ns/#manual
    Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
    Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
    Intel i3 12100
    Intel Arc A380
    OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB

    That's unfortunate.
    I thought there would be a config file where I could turn off this permission bit like I did to nextcloud.

    Thanks.
