I set up Jellyfin and pretty sure I did this correctly in Jellyfin but it's throwing errors with regards to permissions.  I can't see anything else I can do to provide permissions.  I've followed multiple guides and videos and nothing else seems to need to be done from within the share.  I assume I'm missing something in Unraid Share settings, rather than Jellyfin.  What am I missing?

 

Also, all the instructional videos show that there are configs for adding a GPU, but I download all the distros and don't see that in any of them.  Can anyone confirm that this has been removed because it is either out of the box, or Jellyfin no longer supports GPU's?

 

EDIT:  I configured the official Jellyfin the exact same way and it worked.  Something is wrong with the lscr.io and Binhex images.

 

EDIT:  I just realized that it looks like it’s actually Jellyfin’s own local container path volume that is denying access.  It’s denying access to itself for some reason.  ‘Access to the path '/data/tvshows' is denied.’

Added detail

How did you solve this?

@Bmalone I have this exact issue. Could you please describe how you fixed it?

Or was the fix to switch from using the bin-hex release, back to the original?

 

EDIT: I was actually using hotio's container when I had the issue - Removed it (hotio's container); and installed the binhex container and now it works!
