I’ve created a Jellyfin container on Proxmox, but I’m not sure where to add my media files.
I’m stuck at 5:16 in the video and can’t figure out how to properly add the media folder on my server. Any advice would be appreciated!

One of the bigger problems is passtrough of proxmox to that container! How ill you feed more media into that folder? is that a separate drive? im trying to figure this out its very complicated to do.. In windows server 2025 i just create a folder and drop files in im done.. But how to access that folder of NFS or SMB so you can feed more media into it? very very complicated to do honestly... My solution so far is OMV in another VM or TrueNas than share that folder over SMB so i can drop media into it for jellyfin to use..

Hi! Great tutorial. Thanks to you I managed to get my own Jellyfin up and running! Can you write how you manage your media library? My Jellyfin says access problem when deleting movies. What can I do? I'm a complete noob in Linux..
