Hi! I have set up my Jellyfin with NFS Shares from another Server. Jellyfin is able to acces those paths since it I saw it writing .nfo files in the directories of the episodes and Movies.

The movies and series are recognised correctly, but when I open said movies or series, i cant see the episodes and i am unable to start playing them.

It was able to find all epsidoes of like two series. When you open one of those two, you are able to see the episodes but cant play them. If you do, an error about unsupported formats pops up.

ffmpeg is installed in the directory that jellyfin expects it, so i dont have any idea why this is also failing.

Does this sound familiar to any of you fellas? If so, could you give me a hint or a link that helps me with this anomaly? Thx in advance!

What OS is your Jellyfin server and the file server running? Are you running Jellyfin w/ Docker or natively?

Also, have you checked the Jellyfin logs for any errors?

Running it on Debian. Filesystem - no clue. All i know is that its running on an encrypted LVM Volume. Didn't care enough to fiddle with the filesystem tbh.

And no, I didn't have time to check the logs yet. Its running since a few days and I didn't have much time to troubleshoot it. I know, always check the logs first... I hoped someone here alread had this issue and could pinpoint what was their solution ^^

Not much else you can do without checking the Jellyfin logs. It could be a transcoding issue. Could also be permissions or something else altogether.
