How will it be with permissions?

[markrieder]

I tried installing Jellyfin and file manager in TrueNAS. The problem was that I couldn't find the location of the media on the HDD in Jellyfin. Jellyfin couldn't find the hdd path at all and the same was true with file manager. I understood that the error is in granting permissions. These settings are a headache for me. Unfortunately, I have not graduated from an IT school. But I want to use the advantages of ZFS and the system is solid as a rock. To what extent will these difficult settings be simplified?

i'm not currently enrolled in the beta, but i guess that as long as they didn't advertise a one click solution for it - this is the experience you'll get.

if you take plex for example, it opens the folders AND sets the permissions for you with one click (as much as i've witnessed from LTT's video).

protip: if you didn't FIND the folders, this means that Jellyfin wasn't exposed to those folders to begin with (that's a problem with your docker config, not a permissions problem). if you CAN find the folders in jellyfin, but can't write to them, only then i'm afraid you'll have to access TrueNAS's ACL system. i can guide you through it if you wish, but you'll have to provide images from TrueNAS's shares so i can see the folder structure
