Jellyfin with rclone mount not finding directory contents

Help and Support
1

I'm new with Jellyfin, I'm setting up a server and I came across this problem, jellyfin doesn't find the contents inside the mounted directory, I use two google drive accounts defined in two folders 'drive1' and 'drive2' using the following command to assembly:
rclone mount gdrive2: /mnt/drive2 --allow-other --vfs-cache-mode full --vfs-cache-max-size 2G --buffer-size 256M --dir-cache-time 48h --poll-interval 1m --umask 002 --buffer-size 32M --vfs-read-chunk-size 128M --log-level DEBUG --log-file /var/log/drive2.log

SO:
CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

Log Jellyfin:

Log Rclone Mount:

If I'm missing any more information, please correct me.

Eu verificaria se consegue acessar os arquivos logado como o usuário que executa o Jellyfin.
Algo como:

su - jellyfin
ls /mnt/drive2
file '/mnt/drive2/#4K/Esquadrão Suicida: Acerto de Contas (2018).mkv'
3

I don't have access using the jellyfin user, the directory appears empty

4

Make sure the drive is mounted with option --allow-other

5

does these command work?
rclone ls gdrive1:
rclone ls gdrive2:

might test using simple command:
rclone mount gdrive2: /mnt/drive2 --allow-other

6

This is my setup for mounting the drive

rclone ls command shows all files

please post the redacted output for rclone config show

that systemd service file does not match the command you posted?
at this time, adding systemd just adds another layer of confusion.

so let's try to keep this simple, test on the command line using the simple command i shared.

these flags are for the cache remote, that has been deprecated, why use that?

--cache-db-purge
--cache-workers 7

is there a specific reason to use --acd-templink-threshold?

9

I would add these parameters:
--umask=002 --uid=XXXX --gid=YYYY --dir-perms=0770 --file-perms=0664
Replace XXXX and YYYY with jellyfin UID and GID respectively.

–acd-templink-threshold ,Carrying out research on mounting a drive with rclone, I saw that it would be interesting for reading large files, such as movies with 4k resolution. These two I saw in a montage for the Plex of a user here on the Forum
--cache-db-purge
--cache-workers 7

11

The Command works, the permissions on the contents are ok and still Jellyfin does not start the scan. This one is near jellyfin.log

i run jellyfin and emby on linux, all that is required is:
rclone mount gdrive2: /mnt/gdrive2 --allow-other

imho, you are making this more complex than it needs to be.
adding random flags and using deprecated flags for a deprecated cache remote

???

13

How many files are on this drive?
Are there any other files besides "Esquadrão Suicida: Acerto de Contas (2018).mkv"?
Wouldn't it be a problem trying to read a file that has an accented character in the title?

Unless you are using Amazon Drive Storage, it does nothing.

Those are only for the cache backend, which you aren't using.

Apparently the problem was solved by removing the characters in the media, now jellyfin is scanning and finding the titles. Thank you very much for all your help.

17

i see from your config file, that you are using two different types of filename_encryption.
does the problem occur with both remotes?

as i know Esquadrão Suicida: Acerto de Contas (2018).mkv works with filename_encryption = standard

One more doubt, when using the rclone mount command as a Linux service, Jellyfin is unable to find the files again.
Here's the configuration:

Description=drive2 Service
After=drive2.target network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rclone mount gdrive2:PLEX /mnt/drive2 
        --allow-other \
	--umask=002 \
	--uid=0110 \
	--gid=0117 \
        --poll-interval 30s \
	--dir-perms=0770 \
	--file-perms=0664 \
        --log-level DEBUG \
        --log-file /var/log/drive2.log \
ExecStop=/bin/fusermount -u /mnt/drive2
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target```

what was the exact command that worked from terminal?

your systemd file does not match the commands you posted?
rclone mount gdrive2: /mnt/drive2
versus
rclone mount gdrive2:PLEX /mnt/drive2

the last line of ExecStart should not have a trailing slash.

The command used that Jellyfin recognized was:
rclone mount gdrive2:PLEX /mnt/drive2 --allow-other --umask=002 --uid=0110 --gid=0117 --dir-perms=0770 --file-perms=0664
