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!

    You should remove the executable permission, see my other reply. Movie files should never be executable, but directories should be.

    chmod -R -x+X * should do the trick, that will remove the executable permission on all files, and set it on directories.
