It is a synology NAS and all forum posts and tutorials say to install container managerand set up docker. Well tough luck because my model doesn't seem to be compatible with container manager.

Ok, I install the the server in a pc running linux mint, now when I try to create a library I can't point where the files are.

On jellyfin you have to give the local path on the server, where your SMB share is mounted

The smb path to mount from Synology is like:

smb://[NAS]/volume1/[name of your share]

if you have more than one volume you need to choose the good one

Edit: not sure if it was the question actually

Oh!

Yes, I have two volumes but they never showed in the file manager, I'll try it right now.

It didn't work. Is it possible that jellyfin just don't have access? if so, how do I grant it access?
