Hi all, I moved away from Flex just yesterday and installed Jellyfin. Liking it so far, it’s clean and uncluttered, but unfortunately it seems not all my files are being recognized and aren’t showing in the library.
Mostly it looks like it’s showing exclusively mkv files, but I have a bunch of Avi and vob files that used to be properly recognized in Plex. Any way to make those work?
I am running Jellyfin on Podman from Fedora 40 managed by systemd, using the official docker image. The container walkthrough mentioned other 2 alternative images, not sure if I should try one of them?
Thanks!
For my part, to get Jellyfin to recognize some of my shows/movies properly I had to export the Metadata which properly detected most. If that doesn’t work Jellyfin might be ignoring them due to decoding issues. Would be worth checking the log while rescanning to see if there’s an error or access issue.
Interesting is that I see absolutely no errors in the logs. Some folders it explicitly mentions it ignored them for being empty while they actually contain files. Not sure why.
