Expected behaviour

Actual behaviour

Extra details

  • My USB hard drive is showing on dietpi
  • Mount target: /mnt/0E3ECED63ECEB64D
  • but the inside music folders are not added to the Plex music server as well as navidrome music folder

Even in Navdrome i have given same path for music folder stil music files are not added

Which file system format the usb stick has?

i think its ntfs

hmm ntfs did not support file system permissions. Probably that’s why the apps are not able to read files correctly

can you share

ls -la /mnt/0E3ECED63ECEB64D
root@DietPi:~# ls -la /mnt/0E3ECED63ECEB64D
ls: cannot access '/mnt/0E3ECED63ECEB64D': No such file or directory

good if this works now, but please keep in mind that ntfs does not really support Linux file system permission. Just in case there are similar problems in the future :wink:
