I have figured out that I was even further confused. When I went into the disks program to figure out what type of partition was on the drive I realized the drive isn't really at media/RVAtom/SSD it is at mnt/SSD. That makes a little more sense, as I was confused a couple of days ago that it seemed to be in media without me remembering.

Running ls -l on the correct drive gives: rvatom@rvatom-mint-PC:/mnt$ ls -l total 4 drwxr-x---+ 6 rvatom rvatom 4096 Dec 18 22:00 SSD

Under the disks tool I have gone into mount options and checked "mount at system startup". The drive type is Ext4 I believe. I'm going to try a few more reboots but it seems like Jellyfin is willing to look at this drive now. We may have success.

Great question, no I am running Jellyfin version 10.10.3 in Linux Mint 21.3.

 

I have added an SSD to my computer that hosts Jellyfin where I want to have my Shows and Movies folders. When I go to add them to my library I get the following error:

The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again.

So the path I had entered was /media/RVAtom/SSD. SSD is the name of the drive, and it was not offered as a choice by Jellyfin, I typed the SSD part myself.

I get the impression by reading some stuff that I either need to mount the drive at each reboot, or give jellyfin permission to read (or read and write?) that drive, but I am not sure how to go about that.

Thank you so much for your help! I went to that folder and the migrations.xml was a blank file, but system.xml was still okay.

I searched a little about the migrations.xml and found a thread on the jellyfin forum with exactly the same problem so I renamed all of the xml files in the /etc/jellyfin folder and it started back up nicely.

 

I am not sure what I have done to my Jellyfin install. I have been having various issues with my computer that I am using for Jellyfin and when I fixed one (ran out of hard drive space) I now have this one. I do not believe Jellyfin is starting when I reboot my computer. Here is the output of my logs file:

I googled "There is an error in XML document (0, 0)." and was completely overwhelmed by the posts and solutions I found. Is that even the best starting point for picking this apart?

 

After over a decade of seasonal use, my outdoor holiday lights controller didn't wake up when I brought it down from the attic this weekend. I knew I wanted to replace it with something that worked with Home Assistant, but wasn't sure what to go with. I have had a lot of luck lately with some Zigbee devices around the house, and I love having Home Assistant be in charge rather than some other cloud integration. However there didn't seem to be much to choose from Zigbee wise.

Somehow I ended up looking at a Matter enabled device, specifically the TP-Link - Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Outdoor Plug with Matter. I am really pleased with how adding it to Home Assisant worked! I have the Home Assistant Yellow, so I have all of the hardware needed for that. Once I realized I needed my phone on the 2.4 GHz WiFi to provision the TP-Link device, it was smooth as it could be. I never installed a TP-Link app, nor created an account in their cloud.

The Matter dream might be alive after all?!

 

I've been having a hard time with my Pixel Buds Pro for a week or so. It is hard to explain but I think the case and the right earbud don't get along anymore. I'm not sure which one is at fault though.

When I have a charge on the case, and both buds in the case, the devices connect and disconnect really quickly to Bluetooth. Sometimes it charges the right one while it is doing this, sometimes it doesn't. It will actually pull down the charge on my phone while it is going on.

Any ideas? I'm 99% sure I need to replace them, but hoping there is something simple and cheap that could fix it.

 

I consistently have a lack of anaerobic load in my Garmin training load. I did a track run today trying to work on intense intervals. I was hoping to get to the end and have more anaerobic effect than aerobic. Is there something I should be doing differently in my runs? I was under the impression that the rest phase between run intervals should allow you to really catch your breath, so I often walk for a few seconds before getting back into a jog in my rest interval.

Should I be more focused on keeping my pace up during the rest interval? Should I be running fewer/more intervals? Should I ignore these stats and just enjoy the run?
