It seems I can set up a Plex Media Server. I go into the settings, under Manage I pick Libraries. I create a new library. When I try to add folders, the folders I want to add don’t appear. I can’t even seem to be able to navigate to them. They just don’t show up. But I can input the path manually. When I do that, scanning reveals no files whatsoever.
I know this is not a problem with how I have labelled files or anything like that, because I was able to successfully set up a Plex Media Server with Libraries full of files I could watch on my old computer. However, since moving to my new computer, nothing I was doing before works. I am using the same operating system (Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS) and the same Plex account.
I’ve tried changing file permissions but that doesn’t seem to help at all. I’m completely at a loss as to what to do here. It’s a shame, because with my old computer the Plex Media Server was so handy, but now it’s completely unusable and I don’t even know what changed. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
