Interesting. Thanks for that. I ran a chmod +x --recursive . in my library root but still those files won't show up in Jellyfin.

Edit: I just found this link about file naming. Did I understand well that Jellyfin is expecting files to be named in a certain way?

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/

If that's true that's not really ideal, I expected I could just throw files or folders in the library root and Jellyfin would find them?

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.

So I realized, those files were in a "Concerts" type of library. I copied the files into my "Movies" type library, and alas there they are.

Not sure why though, I can work with that, but I'd prefer they would be in their own library.

Is there anything special with that kind of library I should know about? Or is this a bug?

Lol ok your comment just made me realize my mistake, and I'd probably never see it and just go back to Plex instead.

So what happened is that when I imported my Plex library to Jellyfin I created a library named "Concerts" and content type I probably intended to click "Shows" but clicked "Music" instead which I'm guessing at this point expects only audio files, thus, never listing my concerts files on Jellyfin :)

That said, I think "Shows" is probably also not the correct content type here, I think they meant more like TV shows, like The Office or Friends etc. Probably the right content type is either Music Videos or just Movies.

Anyway thanks for the help, I wouldn't have noticed my mistake if it weren't for your comment.

Unfortunately yes. From my 3rd grade daughter's class she the only one with parental controls turned on on her phone. The amount of time and the things those kids see and do on the internet with unrestricted access at this age is mentally unhealthy and they are just not ready for that. Unfortunately because of that it also means I can't fully prevent her from being exposed to that in the classroom.

I wish you a well recovery.

I was feeling pretty bad a few days before Christmas. Couldn't breathe, anxiety level off the roof. I did a COVID test from the pharmacy which was negative, which in turn made me feel even more anxious about my health. A day after Christmas I was so bad I went to the hospital. They tested me there and in less than a minute it was a positive.

It was a pretty bad COVID, I got vaccinated about 2 years ago but this was the first time I actually got it. It went pretty pretty bad.

I am still suffering from long COVID symptoms, mostly issues with short breath etc. Currently lying down on the couch trying to get better. I really hope this ends soon, I need my life back.

I hope you don't have to go through the same thing. I really wish you a swift recovery.
