Personally will be trying to transform my server which is currently in a fractal R5 case, into a small-ish Homelab rack, combined with all my network equipment. Will require complete relocation of all network equipment in the house as well as cables so it will be a bit of a project. Also on the lookout for a good quality rack so let me know if you have any recs. Still unsure if u want to do full width rack or mini. Part of me really want the UDM Pro from Unifi…

What are your goals and thing you want to accomplish during 2025?

    I just want jellyfin to organize media properly.

    Permissions ok, it detects the fils in the software, then the folders are just empty. I know its my incompetence but been bashing my head against that wall a while.

    Certain media categories fix 1 or two podcasts and then other categories break the ones that it fixed.

    Naming conventions? Metadata? File types?

    One day

      I love Jellyfin (kind of love/hate haha), but I would never trust it to manage my media files themselves.

        Is there a way to make a media folder without categorizing it?

        Even the “home video and photos” which usually picks up everything struggles with some mp3 podcasts.

          I manually manage the media files but I do assign the categories, I just mount it on Jellyfin as read only so it can’t make any changes and it stores the metadata and album art on the Jellyfin system partition.

            Gonna try that. Thanks.

            Have everything organized on the drive itself. Gotta be meta data messing it up
