yes, that means it is mounted.
as i mentioned above, the rclone mount, if working, does not return to the command line.

now see if plex and/or jellyfin can see /home/hhh/mount
if not, as i showed above, you need might need to add --allow-other to the command.
or run the rclone mount as root user, using
sudo rclone mount mega: /home/hhh/mount --vfs-cache-mode full

45

jellyfin and plex can see the mount folder but nothing inside

46

then try my suggestions from the last post
sudo rclone mount mega: /home/hhh/mount --vfs-cache-mode full

47

just tried and got this

sudo rclone mount mega: /home/hhh/mount --vfs-cache-mode full
2021/03/18 10:36:39 Fatal error: Directory is not empty: /home/hhh/mount If you want to mount it anyway use: --allow-non-empty option

do i just need to delete the files inside the folder ?

48

yes, delete the files from inside the folder. never use --allow-non-empty.

49

tried your sudo command but still doesnt show up on jellyfin or plex.

shows the hhh/mount folder but when you click inside nothing

50

then try this
rclone mount mega: /home/hhh/mount --vfs-cache-mode full --allow-other

That has done it to show up im jellyfin. Is there anything else i need to do or can i close the terminal windows down?

52

if you want jellyfin to see the files, the rclone mount has to be running.
if you close the terminal, that closes the rclone mount, jellyfin will not work...

rclone mount
"Mount runs in foreground mode by default, use the --daemon flag to specify background mode"

so add --daemon to the command?

rclone mount mega: /home/hhh/mount --vfs-cache-mode full --allow-other --daemon

Thank you for all the help.

56

should i set a cache size or not as well?

57

use that command for a few days and let's see what happens.

for what it is worth, i do not use the vfs cache, i use the default value --vfs-cache-mode=off

58

1st edit with nano or vim
/etc/fuse.conf enable the allow-other flag (remove # before allow-other & save)

make directory at /mnt
like -
mkdir /mnt/my-mega

rclone mount mega: /mnt/my-mega/ --dir-perms 0777 --allow-other --daemon

you can also choose a specific folder/bucket if you want!
like I have kids bucket/folder inside mega:
then

rclone mount mega:/kids/ /mnt/my-mega/ --dir-perms 0777 --allow-other --daemon

enjoy!

hi,

The OP has marked this as solved, are you adding any new information?

--dir-perms 0777 this is not needed, as that is the default value.

60

ok! so --allow-other done the job! but I seriously not getting contents on my other streaming apps! that's why I did it! maybe his apps don't need this ok!

61

the OP is using --allow-other
